The solution to schedule messages on Telegram

There is a small irreducible village in front of the almighty WhatsApp called Telegram. In it, its users know that they have more security than in that other application, that they enjoy more functions and features. And even so, it is WhatsApp that takes the cat into the water. The call effect, they call it: where you are going to be is where there are more people. It is simple. Although, apparently, Telegram is better. And here we are, presenting you with news of this alternative instant messaging application that has just been updated to a new version.Specifically, the number 5.13 that you should already have available in the Google Play Store application store. Among the novelties we have, be careful, that of scheduling messages. For when on WhatsApp?

Schedule messages on Telegram with its new update

The option to schedule messages is very useful, especially for users who manage groups and must keep their members informed about important issues, at times when said administrator will not be able to be in front of their mobile. In this way, you can leave a programmed message that will be made public at the exact moment you want, in an automated way. The way to schedule a message on Telegram is very simple. First, it is obvious, you must update the application to the latest version that you already have available in the Google Play Store application store. You must make sure that the version you are going to install is 5.13.0.

Once you have it installed, we are going to perform the following steps.

Open the chat window of the user to whom you want to send the programmed message. Once you have it, write the message but don't send it. What you have to do is hold down the send button for several seconds, avoiding releasing it because, in this way, the message would be sent at that very moment. At the moment, a small pop-up window will appear in which we will have two options: 'Schedule message' and 'Send without sound'. Choose the first option.

In the next pop-up screen that appears, we must schedule the message, indicating the exact day and time. First of all we can choose the day, going up and down the options until we find the indicated date.Next to it, we will do the same with the exact hour and minute in which we want our message to be sent. We can fine-tune to the minute, so our message will be sent exactly when we want it to. I have done the test in particular and it has been sent perfectly at the right time I scheduled it.
