This feature was released by Google not long ago and it is pretty similar to how we schedule emails. The ability to delay a text can save time and avoid forgetting scenarios. This article will tell you how the text scheduling feature can be used on your phone.
Scheduling messages is quite simple and it just takes two to three extra taps when compared to sending normal messages. Before you follow the steps given below, make sure that you are using the latest version of Google Messages. If the app is not up to date, go to the Play store and update it first.

Steps to schedule a text
- Unlock your Android phone and launch Google Messages. (Given the app is up to date).
