How to schedule Instagram posts
Instagram allows scheduled publishing for professional accounts through approved apps like Feedqube. Here is how to set it up and plan your first post.
What you need
- An Instagram professional account (Business or Creator). Switching is free in the Instagram app settings.
- At least one photo or video for every post: Instagram doesn't accept text-only posts.
Step by step
- In Feedqube, go to Apps and connect Instagram.
- Turn on auto-post for the account.
- Create a post, choose the Instagram account and add your media.
- Pick the format: Post, Reel or Story.
- Choose the date and time and save it as a post.
Good to know
- Carousels take up to 10 photos or videos.
- Stories don't show the caption: put the message in the image.
- Instagram captions can be up to 2,200 characters.
