For all Remind users.

You can use our scheduling feature to plan Remind messages days, weeks, or months in advance. Scheduling is only available for schools and classes at this time. After you schedule a message you can view, edit, or delete the announcement at any time.

We schedule messages based on the time zone you've set for your computer or cell phone instead of the time you see on your computer or phone clock. As a result, if you plan to travel, you must update your time zone before you schedule your message to ensure we deliver your message at the correct time. Scheduling is only available for schools and classes, and you cannot schedule role-based messages via the iOS or Android app at this time.

Things to keep in mind

When you archive a class with a scheduled message, the message will still get delivered.                                                                                                                                                                                                      Be sure to delete scheduled messages before you archive a class.
