Discussion “Send later” Text app for ctb?

[Nocturna666]

What apps or systems have you used or plan to when you ctb that seem reliable for sending to others a text? I need to make sure it's set at a time that specific just in case I pass out using my method but don't actually die and have to make a redo attempt.

pretty sure you need a PC that'll be running and decent programming knowledge to be able to do that

idk what messaging app you use to talk to your friends/relatives but i'm pretty sure most should have a schedule message option even gmail has it

If you're on android (in the U.S.) the default messaging app has a send later function. Just tap and hold the send button and you can select a time and date in the future to send a text. If you wake up before it sends, you can either cancel the message, update it, or change the time its set for. Play around with it to make sure you don't accidentally send it when you arent ready. (by sending a message to your own phone numer)

iPhone has it for iMessage

As far as I know, most messaging apps have scheduled message functionality.

I'll just use email. It can schedule mails.

I was thinking about sending a scheduled e-mail to prevent people from finding my badly decomposed body or something. I'm just a little afraid that maybe the e-mail providers scan our letters for such things (maybe with AI).
Can this be a real concern or am I overthinking?

I will be using this extension for chrome when using gmail. Works great as I have sent many emails to myself on schedules just to test it and you can just change the date simple and easy if you decide to change your mind.
Boomerang for Gmail

Thanks for all the suggestions. Will probably go with iMessage.
