Instagram is rolling out a highly anticipated new feature—message scheduling. Some Android users are already testing this game-changing update, which allows you to schedule your direct messages for a later time. Imagine planning your DMs just like your posts! But how exactly will this new feature work, and what does it mean for your Instagram experience? Let’s dive into the details!
With the message scheduling feature, a new era is beginning for Instagram Stories. After Instagram posts and stories, users will also be able to schedule messages.
The use of the message scheduling feature is very simple. After users write their messages, when they press the 'send' button long enough, the 'schedule message' option will appear. According to initial information, messages can be scheduled up to 29 days in advance. Scheduled messages will appear with a notification like '... scheduled messages.'
Users will be able to schedule their messages to be sent at the date and time of their choice. This will allow brands to easily reach their followers in different time zones.
While the feature is known to be tested by some Android users, it is not yet clear when it will be completed and rolled out to all users.
