# Schedule Message

The "Schedule Message" feature in the WaSnap project allows users to compose and schedule messages to be sent at a specified future time. This feature is particularly useful for users who want to send reminders, birthday wishes, or any other messages that need to be delivered at a specific time without requiring the user to manually send them at that moment.

**Here's how a Schedule Message feature could work in WaSnap :**

1. **Compose Message:** Open WaSnap and navigate to the chat where you want to send a scheduled message. Type your message in the message input area as you normally would.
2. **Access Scheduling Options:** Instead of hitting the send button, click on the "Schedule Message" button located next to the send button. This button might be represented by a clock icon or a similar scheduling symbol.
3. **Set Date and Time**
   * A date and time picker interface will pop up.
   * Select the desired date and time when you want the message to be sent. Ensure the date and time are set correctly according to your needs.
4. **Confirm Scheduling**
   * After setting the date and time, confirm the scheduling by clicking the "Schedule" button on the picker interface.
   * A confirmation message or notification will appear, indicating that your message has been successfully scheduled.
5. **View Scheduled Messages**
   * To view your scheduled messages, go to the "Scheduled Messages" section, accessible from the main menu or settings.
   * Here, you can see all your scheduled messages, including the recipient, message content, and scheduled send time.
6. **Edit or Cancel Scheduled Messages**
   * If you need to edit a scheduled message, select the message from the "Scheduled Messages" section.
   * Make the necessary changes to the message content or the scheduled time, and save the changes.
7. **Automated Sending**
   * A background service on the server checks the message queue at regular intervals.
   * When the scheduled date and time are reached, the service automatically sends the message to the recipient.

By following these steps, users can effectively schedule and manage their messages, ensuring timely communication even when they are not available to send messages manually.
