The Instagram auto-posting system is in BETA version at the moment and is only available to some companies for testing purposes.

We will add it in Preview as soon as Instagram fixes the issues they are having with their current auto-posting feature.

For now Preview will send you a notification when it’s time to post:

• Select the photo you need to post
• Select Instagram
• Paste your caption & hashtags on Instagram (Preview automatically copies it for you)
• Post

If you would like us to send you an email when the auto-post is available, please send us an email here.

Unfortunately Instagram does not allow 3rd party apps to load IGTV videos yet.

It’s against their rules.

We want to stay Instagram-approved and safe for people to use. So we will add this to Preview as soon as Instagram officially allows this.

In the meantime, this is what people do:

• In your Preview settings: Turn off “Load Instagram Posts” and “Delete published posts”
• Continue using Preview as usual and don’t delete your planned posts after you post them on Instagram
• Upload your IGTV covers as a placeholders for your IGTV post in Preview

Unfortunately Instagram doesn’t allow anyone to rearrange or edit photos that have already been posted on Instagram. They are fixed. You can use Preview to plan your future posts. You will be able to see how your feed will look like before you post anyhting on Instagram. Want to see all the features in Preview?

Instagram might be having problems with its login system. Preview doesn’t have control over the Instagram login system. Please try these solutions:

1. You don’t need to login to Instagram to start using Preview. You can use Preview without logging in for now. You can log in later when Instagram is back to normal.
2. Please restart your phone and try to login again.
3. Make sure you have the latest version of Instagram installed on your phone.
4. Here are few more tricks you can try: Please read these solutions.
