Switch from Preview to SkedCast
Preview’s terms mention the ability to import and export User Content to and from third-party services in general terms, without a specific documented procedure for exporting scheduled posts. On account termination, Preview states you lose access and must stop using the service immediately, but does not explicitly say what happens to already-scheduled posts.
What Preview lets you take with you
Scheduled posts
Preview’s terms mention the ability to "import and export information, including User Content, to and from third party services," but no specific, documented procedure for exporting the scheduled-post calendar was found.
Disconnecting or cancelling
On account termination, Preview states you lose access to your account and must immediately cease using the service. It does not explicitly state what happens to already-scheduled posts, though the access loss implies they stop.
How to move from Preview to SkedCast
- Record what is still queued in Preview. No specific export procedure for the scheduled-post calendar was confirmed. List what is still queued before you disconnect anything.
- Bulk-import the CSV into SkedCast. Upload the CSV to SkedCast’s bulk import. Every row is validated against the platform it targets, so a bad row is fixed in the import instead of failing at publish time.
- Reconnect each account. Connect each social account in SkedCast through its own official sign-in. Group accounts by client if you manage several.
- Cancel Preview once every post is confirmed live. Cancel via account settings, or in the 24 hours before renewal in the App Store/Google Play if subscribed there. Subscription fees are non-refundable. Confirm every post is live in SkedCast first.
