Do you want to send a message at a particular time and date? It can be a birthday wish or an important reminder that you want to send well ahead of time to make it reach at a precise time for maximum impact on the receiver. You can do this through the message scheduling feature on Telegram. That means you don't need to worry about missing out on sending important messages on time. Notably, this scheduled messages feature is not available on the popular instant messaging app WhatsApp.

Not just scheduling, but this feature can be turned into a reminder too. Telegram mentioned that the scheduling also works in your ‘Saved Messages' chat. That means you can simply turn your planned posts into reminders. “Be your own time-travelling secretary – whether it's about a dentist appointment next week, or waking up in time for pizza delivery,” Telegram added.

You will also be notified once the message has been successfully sent to the user. Telegram says that "Whenever a scheduled message or reminder is sent, you get a special notification marked with a calendar note, so you don't get caught off-guard by messages you planned in the past."
