Type a birthday wish at noon and have WhatsApp deliver it at midnight, even if your phone is offline. WhatsApp scheduled messages now make that possible for some Android beta testers. This feature was introduced in beta version 2.26.40.7 on the Google Play Store after many months since it had been first observed by WABetaInfo in its development process.
It is used for individual and group conversations and can be used to send text, links, images, and videos. The scheduled message remains end-to-end encrypted.
