The 'Scheduled Messages' feature is reportedly being tested on some Android beta users by WhatsApp. This feature enables WhatsApp users to compose messages, send links, and send photos and videos at scheduled times without having to manually send the messages. It is said that the feature will work in both personal and group chats even if the device of the sender is offline at the time of sending the message. Users will also be able to preview or delete the messages prior to sending them.

WhatsApp will roll out this 'Scheduled Messages' feature on some users using WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.26.40.7, according to WABetaInfo. In order to schedule a message, the user can type the message in the chat and then press and hold the send button. The option to select a delivery time and date of the message will appear on WhatsApp if the feature is available.

It is also said that the messages which can be scheduled include text messages, links, photos, and videos. However, the user can schedule only one photo or video at a time. The image can be edited or caption added to the image via the drawing editor and then scheduled. Messages can be scheduled from 10 minutes to 2 weeks in advance.

Once the selected time arrives, WhatsApp will automatically send the message, even if the app is closed or the sender's phone is offline. This feature may also work in group chats, but it will only be available to members who were part of the group when the message was scheduled. Anyone who joins the group later is not expected to receive the message.

Users may also find a dedicated section in the chat info screen to view and delete messages before they are delivered. If a user deletes a scheduled message, the recipient is not expected to receive a notification.

This scheduled messages feature is likely to support end-to-end encryption. This feature is reportedly rolling out to some Android beta testers via the Google Play Store and is expected to expand in the coming weeks.
