If you've already enabled auto publishing to Instagram from Later, your captions will be automatically added once the post goes live on Instagram! Line breaks and formats are often stripped off by Instagram when auto publishing, to ensure they are retained schedule auto publish posts from Later on the web.
If you are looking to keep a clean and formatted caption, you can choose to publish to Instagram via Later's mobile notifications! Later will preserve those lines for you and once published to Instagram those formats will stay intact.
You can also do some last edits to your post and add tags, locations and filters before posting.
Here's how it works:
Publishing to Instagram via Later's Mobile Notifications
Open the mobile notification we send to your mobile device when it's time to post.
Once you open the post from Later to Instagram, we copy the caption you created on desktop or mobile to your phone's clipboard.
All you have to do is paste your caption in Instagram (you can do this by holding your finger on the caption area to get the paste option).
Once you receive your alert, open your photo in the Instagram app, and paste the caption in the caption field.
On iOS, tap your finger in the caption box to paste. On Android, hold your finger in the caption box to paste.
