How to use the Social Post Preview
- Enter your name, handle and post text.
- Add an image and profile photo if you like.
- Switch between platforms to compare layouts and cut-offs.
What does this tool do?
On LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram only the first part of a post shows before “see more”, so the opening line has to earn the click. The preview shows where each platform is likely to cut off.
Layouts are approximate and generic — each app changes its design over time. Everything stays in your browser.
Why use it?
- Four platform styles.
- Shows truncation points.
- Your own photo and image.
