# Post, schedule, and use the calendar

Pick panels you’ve drawn and post them to your social accounts now or at a set time, and see upcoming and past posts in the calendar.

## Overview

Open the composer with **Post it yourself** in the **Publishing** step to post by hand. You only need a connected account: if you haven’t set up account settings yet, you’ll see **Post one now without account settings** there instead. Posting panels you’ve already drawn doesn’t cost credits.

## Post a photo post

1. With the project that has your panels open in the Studio on the web, open the **SNS Auto** tab and go to the **Publishing** step. The app doesn’t have this tab.
2. Click **Post it yourself** to open the composer. If you haven’t set up account settings yet, click **Post one now without account settings** instead.
3. Under **Cuts to attach**, click the panels you want to post. They’re numbered in the order you pick them, and the first few panels start out selected for you. **Cover** below is on from the start. When an AI-suggested line fills the **Opening line** field, a cover with that line over your first panel goes out as the first image (the first scene of a reel). You can rewrite the line, or click **Post without a cover** to leave the cover out.

4. Write your caption and choose accounts under **Post to**. To write a different caption for one account, click **Write separately for this account**.
5. Click **Post now** to start posting. It can take a few minutes to finish.

> **Note:** Each platform has its own caption length limit. The composer shows your current count and the limit, and the “#AI생성” label added automatically on Threads counts toward it.

## Schedule a post

Click **Schedule** to show date and time fields. Choose a time and click **Schedule it**, and the post goes out automatically at that time. You can’t pick a time in the past, and there’s a limit on how far ahead you can schedule.

## Post a reel video

Choose **Reel video** next to **Cuts to attach** in the composer to turn your selected panels into a vertical video and post it. You can post reels to Instagram and Threads. But if your account settings have the speaker set to **A character recommends me**, reels can’t be posted yet.

1. Choose a song under **Background music**. The songs are free and set to the same volume. To post without sound, choose **No music**. If you picked a song in your account settings, it’s applied automatically.
2. Click **Preview the reel** to make the video, then play it yourself.
3. Once you’ve checked it, click **Looks good, post now**. Reels only go out after you’ve checked the finished video.

- If you use a song, its creator’s credit is added to the end of your caption automatically. It’s the condition for using the song for free, so it can’t be removed.
- Right now reels can’t be scheduled; you post them right after checking them.
- Videos made in the Studio’s **Reel** tab can be sent to this composer with **Post to social**. Those videos have no sound, and you can’t add a song to them. See [Make a Reel](https://www.gentoon.ai/en/help/export-and-share/reels) for details.

## Add music in the Instagram app

To use music from the Instagram app, download the file from the **Post from Instagram with music** card in the composer and post it yourself in the Instagram app. You can copy the caption too, and it already includes the “#AI생성” label. Files you download this way follow your plan’s logo rules, and the first-post logo exemption doesn’t apply.

## Calendar and post lists

See your posts in the **Calendar**, **Drafts**, **Up next**, and **Done** tabs at the bottom of the **Publishing** step. Times are shown in your device’s time zone.

- **Scheduled** · **Sending** · **Posted** — The status changes as the post goes out.
- **Partly posted** — It went out to only some of the accounts you picked.
- **Couldn’t post** — It couldn’t be posted. The reason is shown with it.
- **Checking** — The platform didn’t send back a result, so GenToon is checking whether it actually went up.

Posts that haven’t gone out yet can be cancelled with **Cancel post**.

> **Note:** The **Free** plan has a set number of posts you can make by hand each week. When you’ve used them, the composer tells you, and you can post again next week (from 00:00 Sunday, Korea time). On plans that add a logo, from your second post on, a confirmation window may appear just before posting (for a reel, before the video is made), saying the logo will be included.

## FAQ

**It says the post only partly went out.**

**Partly posted** means it went out to some of the accounts you picked but not others. The reason it missed is shown on that account’s line. Posting the same thing again to every account would post it twice to the accounts that already got it, so when you post again, pick only the accounts it missed in the composer.

**It’s stuck on **Checking**.**

The platform didn’t respond while posting, so GenToon is checking whether it actually went up. Posting it again could post it twice, so please wait until the check finishes. If it still says this after a long while, check in that app whether the post went up, and [contact us](https://www.gentoon.ai/en/help/support/contact-support).

**Can I cancel a scheduled post?**

You can cancel it with **Cancel post** as long as it hasn’t gone out yet.

**Does posting cost credits?**

Posting panels you’ve already drawn and making reel videos don’t cost credits.
