You’ve just created the perfect Facebook post and are ready to publish it. But something happens, and you must postpone its publication. Facebook has a few handy publishing tools that save your work as Facebook post drafts.
Saving Facebook drafts differs between the Facebook app and the desktop version. Regardless of whether you use an iOS device or a contemporary Android tablet, we walk you through the steps for saving a Facebook post.
When you leave a Facebook post as a new draft, you receive a notification from the app stating that your draft is saved. Let’s check it in action.
You may accidentally dismiss a Facebook notification on your Android device. In that case, find Facebook alerts from the Notification History menu. You can read our dedicated guide to check notification history on your Android phone.
Facebook for iPhone only saves one draft at a time. You may receive an alert from Facebook to complete your post. You can also use the same What’s on your mind menu to find your draft.
If you manage several Facebook pages, the experience is better on Meta Business Suite.
Facebook web doesn’t support drafts for your personal posts. When you write a post and switch to another tab, Facebook asks if you want to keep editing your current post or leave the page. You lose access to your current draft when you leave the current page. When you manage your Facebook pages on the web, go to Meta Business Suite and find your drafts.
Facebook helps you save your drafts. It’s a basic feature of any social media app, and you don’t need to search through navigation menus to find your half-finished posts. You don’t need to publish your Facebook at odd hours. You can time your posts and stories to get the maximum views and traction on the social media platform. Read our dedicated guide to schedule a Facebook post and free up your time.
Maybe if we start telling people the brain is an app they will start using it!
