LinkedIn: Users will soon be able to schedule posts on LinkedIn to publish at a later time. According to at least one online report in August, the Microsoft-owned social network has apparently been testing the new feature internally for a number of months already. However, it appears that LinkedIn is now getting ready for prime time, according to a growing number of reports across social media.
Yesterday, a well-known tipster and social media expert confirmed that the post-scheduling capability was now visible on both the LinkedIn website and the Android app. At the moment some users can and some can’t see this feature on their accounts.

How to use the function?
If the function is enabled, users will notice a small clock icon next to the “post” button in the message compose box. When a user hits the clock icon, they are given the option to schedule their post for a particular date and half-hourly time window.
Although this new feature will undoubtedly excite millions of marketers, influencers, and “thought leaders” around the globe, it is important to note that third-party services have offered similar capabilities for some time. Native functionality is almost always more simple, especially for people who only want to share a certain piece of material with their LinkedIn followers. However, not everyone is pleased to provide third-party platforms access to their LinkedIn accounts for data protection reasons.
LinkedIn was very late in introducing this feature
Native post-scheduling has really always been a very noticeable missing from a social network as popular as LinkedIn, which boasts about 875 million members worldwide. Facebook and Twitter have both long-given scheduling capabilities. Email programmes like Gmail also let you send messages while you’re asleep.
