Here, you can view all the posts.

The Planner offers three views so you can visualize your content schedule in the way that works best for you. Tap the view toggle at the top of the Planner screen to switch between them.
1
Monthly view — See your entire month at a glance. Each day shows a dot or count indicator for scheduled posts, making it easy to spot busy days or content gaps across the month.
2
Weekly view — Get a focused look at the current week. Posts are laid out day by day, giving you a clear picture of what's going out and when — ideal for short-term planning and review.
3
List view — View all your posts in a scrollable list, sorted by schedule date. Best for reviewing post details, checking statuses, and managing individual posts quickly.

In the Monthly or Weekly view, tap any date slot and select Create Post — the Composer will open with that date pre-selected, so you can schedule your post right away.
📝 Note: Tapping on a past date will not open the Composer. You can only create posts for today's date or any future date.
