How to schedule WhatsApp message on Android
As we mentioned earlier, WhatsApp has not introduced any official feature to schedule messages. However, if you use an Android device, you can schedule messages on WhatsApp with the help of several third-party apps. Yes, there are many third-party apps out there that can help you with this, but one app is SKEDit which does its job better. So let’s know how to schedule WhatsApp messages with the help of this app-
1. First google play store On reaching SKEDit Download and install.
2. After opening, you have to first sign-in to it.
3. After signing in, tap on WhatsApp from the main menu.
4. After this the app will ask you for some permission, grant it. Now tap on Enable Accessibility then go to SKEDit and turn on the toggle. Finally you have to tap on Allow.
5. Then go back to the app, where you will be able to schedule your messages. First, select the message you want to send and then type your message. Now set the date and time. Here you will also get an option whether you want to repeat this message or not.
6. Below you will now see the final toggle. Here you will see the option of Ask Me Before Sending, if you schedule it by turning it on, then before sending the message it will send you a notification, only after clicking on it will send this message. At the same time, if you turn off this option, then it will send this message without sending the notification. If you want to wish a friend a birthday, then you can also keep it off.
