How to Schedule WhatsApp Messages on Android and iPhone Using Third-Party Apps

Third-party tools fill the gap left by WhatsApp's missing scheduler.

Overview

  • On Android, Wasavi can queue and send messages after users grant device-control and contacts permissions.
  • On iPhone, Scheduled alerts the user at the chosen time and opens WhatsApp with a prefilled message for manual confirmation.
  • iOS restrictions block third-party apps from sending WhatsApp messages without user interaction.
  • Both approaches require notifications to stay enabled to trigger the scheduled workflow.
  • Wasavi is available on Google Play and Scheduled on the App Store, with some users adding Apple's Shortcuts for extra automation.
