Steps
Install Chatmaid Schedule from the App Store or Google Play, then open it and create an account with your email address.
In the app, choose the option to link WhatsApp. A QR code appears on the screen.
On your phone, open WhatsApp, go to Settings, then Linked devices, and tap Link a device. Scan the QR code shown in Chatmaid.
Tap the button to create a new scheduled message. Pick the contact or group you want to message.
Type your message text, then set the date and time you want it delivered. Confirm and save the schedule.
For repeat messages, open the recurring option and choose Daily, Weekly or Monthly, then set the start time and save.
Open the scheduled messages list to review, edit or cancel any message before it sends.
Tips and common mistakes
Keep your phone connected during the first QR link, since the scan needs both devices online.
Double-check the time zone in the app so a message does not arrive at the wrong hour.
Recurring messages keep sending until you cancel them, so review the list now and then.
Only link your WhatsApp to apps you trust, because a linked device can read and send your chats.
Questions
Can I schedule WhatsApp messages without an app?
No. WhatsApp has no native scheduling feature on iPhone or Android. You need a third-party tool or a WhatsApp Business account with automation.
Does the recipient need to install anything?
No. The message arrives in their normal WhatsApp chat and looks like a regular text from you.
Will the message send if my phone is off?
With Chatmaid the schedule runs in the cloud, so it can send while your phone is off or offline, as long as your WhatsApp account stays linked.
