You can now automatically schedule Instagram posts with Preview!

Preview has been officially approved by Instagram to auto-post and follows Instagram’s Rules and Policies. This means that the app and auto-post are safe to use.

As you know, you can already plan unlimited posts, Instagram Stories, Reels and IGTVs in Preview.

Let’s look at how to automate Instagram posts.

If you’ve already been using Preview, you’ll know the first few steps.

If you’re new, here’s how to automatically schedule Instagram posts.

1. Upload new posts in Preview

For this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to schedule Instagram posts on the phone.

But you can use Preview on your computer too.

First, upload a new post:

  • Press on the + button
  • Press “Library” to choose photos/videos from your camera roll
  • Press “More” if you want to upload from your Google Drive / Dropbox or other apps

Once you’ve uploaded new posts, they will appear in your Preview feed.

6. Automatically schedule to post in a different timezone

Is your main audience living in a different city or country?
Or maybe your clients are in a different timezone and you need to post when you’re asleep?

You can automatically schedule your Instagram posts for a different timezone.

Just choose the day and time you want to post in the other city/country. And then press on the timezone to change city / country.

Your post will be posted at that day and time in the other city / country.
