Scheduling Messages

You can schedule a message to be sent at a selected time on an iOS and Android mobile device. Messages can be scheduled only in an existing thread. Messages sent in the New Message window cannot be scheduled. You can schedule text messages, attachments, and audio messages. Messages with video files cannot be scheduled. By default, scheduled messages are disabled. To enable them, contact your TeleMessage representative.

A scheduled message is archived after the message is sent to the recipient. The mobile device from which the scheduled messages are sent must be turned on to archive the message.

To schedule a message:

  1. Open an existing conversation thread.
  2. Create a message with text, attachment, or voice recording.
  3. Long-press the Send icon.
