1. **Add a Description** (optional).
2. **Set Schedule** -- Choose your desired date and time for submission.
3. **Content Designation** -- Indicate whether the video is **made for kids** or not. See [YouTube's help documentation](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9528076) for guidance on determining kids' content.
4. Click **Schedule Post**.

Your YouTube Short is now scheduled. It will be submitted from your account at the scheduled date and time.

## Supported Features

Everything Postpone supports when scheduling to YouTube:

- **Shorts** — Publish a single vertical video of 3 minutes or less to your channel.
- **Title** — Give the Short a title of up to 100 characters (required).
- **Description** — Add a description of up to 5,000 characters.
- **Visibility** — Publish the Short as public, unlisted, or private.
- **Made for kids** — Declare whether the video is directed at children, which YouTube requires for every upload.
- **Altered or synthetic content disclosure** — Mark the video as containing realistic AI-generated or altered content, as YouTube's policies require.
- **@mentions** — Reference other channels by typing `@` in the title or description.
- **Notification posting (optional)** — Instead of letting Postpone publish the Short for you, you can opt into a notification when it's time to post and publish from the YouTube app yourself. See [Notification Posting](https://help.postpone.app/scheduling/publishing/notification-posting).
- **AI Post Writer** — Generate or rewrite your title and description. See [Writing Individual Posts](https://help.postpone.app/ai/writing-posts/writing-individual-posts).

<note>

Postpone schedules Shorts only. Videos longer than 3 minutes, playlists, and premieres aren't supported, and custom thumbnails can't be set from Postpone.
