Before you start
Steps

On a computer, choose "Social Schedule" in the main menu. On a phone, tap "Schedule" in the bottom bar.
You should see: Your calendar and the Up next list.
Open ScheduleClick or tap the post
Find it on the calendar or in the Up next list.
You should see: A window titled "Edit scheduled post".
Tap "Delete post"
The red button is on the right on a computer, and further down on a phone.
You should see: A box asking "Delete this post?". It says this can't be undone.
Confirm with "Delete post"
Tap "Cancel" instead if you changed your mind.
You should see: A "Post deleted" message. The post is gone from your schedule and from Facebook.
Skip a post before it's scheduled
On the "Generate posts" page, swipe left on a card or tap "Reject". The post is skipped and removed from the deck. Nothing is added to your schedule. See how to approve a post for the full swipe flow.
Delete, or keep it as a draft
| Delete | Make draft | |
|---|---|---|
| Stays on your calendar | No | Yes, marked Draft |
| Stays on Facebook | No | No |
| Can you undo it | No | Yes. Choose "Schedule on platforms" later |
What happens next
In Review Mode, a deleted post leaves a gap in your week. In Autopilot Mode, Autopilot plans the next posts overnight.

- Don't want to delete it? Try how to edit a post instead.
- Move it to another day with how to reschedule a post.
If something's not right
Delete didn't work and the post is still there
Facebook may not have let Autopilot remove it. Reconnect your Page, then try again. See what to do when Facebook disconnects your Page.
I skipped a post by mistake
A skipped post doesn't come back. Open Generate posts for new ones, or see how to approve a post.
I deleted a post I wanted
Delete can't be undone. Write a new one with how to create a post yourself.
