The capability to prepare and dispatch messages at a predetermined future time on Apple’s mobile operating system enables users to manage communication effectively. For instance, individuals can compose a reminder to be sent to a colleague later in the day or draft a birthday greeting to be delivered precisely at midnight.
This functionality offers several advantages, including improved time management, enhanced organizational skills, and the ability to communicate across different time zones without requiring immediate user interaction. Historically, this type of deferred messaging required third-party applications, but increasing demand has pushed for more integrated solutions.
