Jakarta (ANTARA) - WhatsApp is testing a scheduled-messaging feature\nfor iOS users, shortly after beginning trials on Android devices earlier\nthis month.<\/p>\n
According to a GSM Arena report on Thursday (22 October), the feature\nis being rolled out to some users of WhatsApp Beta for iOS version\n26.42.10.19 through the TestFlight platform.<\/p>\n
The feature works in much the same way as its Android counterpart.\nAfter typing a message, users simply press and hold the send button to\nbring up a menu for selecting the date and time it should be sent, then\nconfirm using the green button at the bottom.<\/p>\n
Messages can be scheduled for as soon as 10 minutes after they are\ncreated, or up to two weeks in advance.<\/p>\n
The feature supports text, links and one photo or video file. All\nscheduled messages remain protected by end-to-end encryption.<\/p>\n
Users can manage or delete scheduled messages at any time before they\nare sent, in a dedicated section on the chat information page.<\/p>\n
Recipients will not be notified if the sender cancels or deletes a\nscheduled message.<\/p>\n
In group chats, scheduled messages will be sent only to members who\nhad joined when the message was scheduled. Members who join later will\nnot receive it.<\/p>\n
WhatsApp has not yet announced an official release date for the\nfeature for all public users on either iOS or Android.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/whatsapp-tests-scheduled-messages-on-ios-devices-1792756484", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
