WhatsApp Tests Scheduled Messages Feature for iOS Users in Beta Phase

ISLAMABAD: WhatsApp has initiated testing of its highly anticipated scheduled messages feature for iOS users, following successful trials on Android. The feature is currently available to select beta testers using the WhatsApp beta for iOS version 26.42.10.19 through TestFlight, with broader access expected in the coming weeks.

This new functionality allows users to set specific times for sending messages, enhancing the app’s usability for both personal and professional communication. The rollout marks a significant step in WhatsApp’s ongoing efforts to improve user experience and compete with other messaging platforms that already offer similar features.

The introduction of scheduled messages is likely to have a positive impact on user engagement, as it caters to the growing demand for more sophisticated messaging tools. This feature could particularly benefit businesses and professionals who rely on timely communication to manage their operations effectively.

As WhatsApp continues to refine its features, users can anticipate further updates and enhancements. The company has not yet announced a specific timeline for a full rollout, but the current beta testing phase suggests that a wider launch could be imminent.
