Creating a New Post
The first screen that you'll be taken to when you open the app is the Posts screen.
Drafts - top left tab: Upload and edit draft posts from here
Schedule - top right tab: See currently scheduled posts and post that have already been published to your Feed!
+ Upload Drafts - bottom center: Upload images or photos from your phone
You can also upload media to a specific time slot in your schedule. Just go to Schedule in the top right tab, then tap on an empty time slot --- keep in mind uploading a post to an empty time slot this way will actually schedule it for that time.

Post Type:
If you want Tailwind to publish your posts for you, you'll need to set up Auto Post for each Instagram profile that you've added to your Tailwind account. Setting it up is easy and just takes a few minutes.
Simply head over to the Settings tab at the bottom right, then select Set up Autopost.
If you don't want to set up Auto Post, the Push Notification method will send you a message at the schedule time for the post to go out. Stories and Carousel Posts can only be scheduled with Push Notifications.
Setting a custom time:
You can also select the clock icon in the top right corner to choose a custom time:
