The popular instant messaging application is rumoured to bring scheduled message feature that will enable users to set a message to be delivered at specific time. Now it is said that the company is testing the feature in the latest beta version of WhatsApp for the Android platform. So let’s get into the article to check out the details.
WhatsApp is currently testing schedule message feature for the Android beta version and the message schedule feature is currently supporting text, links, photos, and videos. It is worth mentioning that you can only schedule one image or video per message at this time.
This particular feature is end-to-end encrypted as well. You can able to schedule a message by simply tapping and holding the send button in a chat. WhatsApp will offer an interface where you can choose when you want the message to be delivered. The earliest time slot is 10 minutes from now, but you can go up to two weeks if you want.
WhatsApp will also offer a dedicated section in the chat info screen where you can able to see, manage, and delete your scheduled messages at any time before they get sent. Having said that, the recipient will never be able to know that you scheduled a message for them. In the group, you can able to send a scheduled message to those who were part of the group when the sender scheduled it. So if someone joins the group in between the message then he or she will not get your schedule message. This feature will work even if your device is offline as well.
We don’t have any information about the availability of the feature in the stable version but we believe that the developers of WhatsApp will release very soon.
