WhatsApp offers a number of services to users that make their messaging experience easy and smooth.
While millions of WhatsApp users would like the schedule message feature on WhatsApp, the instant messaging platform does not allow such a thing in its app.

The schedule message feature can be a very useful tool and make sure users don't forget to send a birthday or anniversary message on time.
Although the feature is not available on WhatsApp, there are several third-party apps available online that will solve this problem for users. Using these third-party apps, you can schedule WhatsApp messages on Android and iOS.
However, WhatsApp allows “Use Away Messages” for business accounts. This is a function you can use when you are busy or out of the office.
Users can set automatic messages for all their contacts or for some contacts.
They can also schedule an away message to activate automatically at certain times, for example, during the hours your business is closed.
