Instagram Reel is one of the fastest ways to grow reach and engagement, but posting manually every day takes time you could spend on planning content and strategy.
In this guide, you will learn how to schedule a Reel for Instagram using Social Champ, so your content goes live exactly when you want it to.
- Log in to your Social Champ account.

- Select your Instagram Business profile from the top dropdown menu.
- Click Create Post and craft your caption with hashtag, emoji, and mention.

- Tap the + media icon, choose Upload, and add your 9:16 video (5–90 second, $\le 1920$ px).


- Toggle the Reel switch that appears once the video finish uploading.

- Pick the thumbnail frame that best represent your content (custom upload are not available per Instagram’s API).

- Choose Post Now or set a future date and time, then click Schedule.

You have just queued a polished Reel that will go live exactly when your audience is most active. Repeat the step to build an entire week or month of Reel in one sitting, then use Social Champ’s calendar view to drag, drop, or reschedule in second.
