Two Instagram stories are displayed: one shows a beach, the other a pink flamingo floating in turquoise water. Below them are two smaller preview images featuring a pineapple and yellow umbrellas. Above the left story, there's a profile picture of a person wearing a red cap and patterned shirt, placed next to the Instagram logo.

How to schedule your Instagram Stories with SocialBee

Don’t have a SocialBee account yet? Create one for free, start your 14-day trial, connect your Instagram account, and start posting.

1. Upload your Story content

Click “Create post” and upload media like photos and videos you want to share on Instagram Stories.

2. Preview your Instagram Story

See exactly how your Story will look before it goes live. Make any tweaks to get it just right.

3. Choose a posting time

Post right away or schedule content for later. SocialBee will even suggest the best times to post your Instagram Story based on your past content performance.

4. Organize you Stories

Add your Instagram Story to a category. Think of these like folders that help you group similar content together, like behind-the-scenes moments or tutorials.

On the left, a yellow "Create post" button appears above a post creation window that includes an image thumbnail and editing icons. Below, a calendar suggests optimal posting times. On the right, an Instagram story shows buildings against a sunset sky.

5. Put your Stories on repeat (if you want)

If your Stories are evergreen, you can set them as recurring posts that automatically repost. Choose whether to remove them after a few shares or keep them in your rotation.

6. Save as draft or mark as ready

Still working on your Story? Save it as a draft. Ready to go? Mark it as approved, and SocialBee will handle the posting.

7. Get team feedback

Invite your team to review and leave notes on your Instagram Story.

8. Use the visual calendar to plan with ease

See your upcoming Instagram Stories in a calendar view. You can edit them, move things around, or fill in gaps to keep your content flowing.
SocialBee's social media calendar interface with two Instagram stories overlaid on the calendar: a poll with two options to choose between ice cream and a sundae, and a photo of a body of water. A dropdown menu provides options such as Preview post, Post now, Edit, Duplicate, Add note, and Delete.
