How to schedule WhatsApp messages | Business Insider India

• WhatsApp currently does not allow users to schedule messages on the app.
• You can use third-party apps to schedule WhatsApp messages.
• Scheduling messages allows you to remember to send birthday and anniversary messages to your friends and family.

WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps and offers a lot of features for users. However, it is still missing some important aspects — one such example being message scheduling.

While WhatsApp message scheduling is not an official feature, there are third-party apps that allow you to enable this feature. This allows you to schedule messages and send them after some time if you wish to avoid someone at a particular time or do not wish to send the message immediately.

If you do not remember birthdays and anniversaries, spending a few minutes to schedule messages on WhatsApp won’t get you in trouble for forgetting someone’s special day.
