About Text Later APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Text Later is the simple solution to sending SMS messages at a later date. Need to send a reminder about a meeting? Or maybe you are a little forgetful about sending out Happy Birthday messages to friends and family. Text Later allows you to send out SMS messages to contacts, at any date or time of your choosing. Make sure you have a texting plan through your carrier, as Text Later sends standard SMS messages and you are responsible for any charges from your carrier regarding the sending of SMS messages.The latest update refreshes the UI to better conform to updated Android standards. Now it's even simpler to schedule text messages!
By default you can send messages based on a 15 minute interval, however if you prefer a different spacing you can change it in the settings menu.
In Android KitKat and above, dent messages will be logged to your default messages app. That way you'll never forget what you said.
If you find issues please email me, don't put them in the comments. I cannot respond to comments, but I will fix issues that come to me via email. :)
Some comments have claimed this will send spam messages. THE APP WILL NOT SEND SUCH MESSAGES. If you are getting that it is from some other app. That type of behavior is against Google play policy, and I do not engage in that sort of thing. The only messages that will be sent are ones that you schedule.
This is a free app, I make no warranties regarding it.

NEW v 1.4

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
1 ★I scheduled 10 texts and they were not sent unless I went in and checked in to make sure they were delivered. And some we're not sent that we're supposed to be delivered a week or more ago. I will be using a different app. This didn't do what it was needed. Very disappointed.
5 ★Just schedule the text for a more appropriate time. It even makes you look like an early riser! The date-and-time selection sliders are a little awkward (I'd rather just type), but they they get the job done. Just don't schedule anything a year in the future.
1 ★It doesn't send the delayed texts unless you open the app after the scheduled time has passed. That defeats the purpose of the app. Great idea, poor execution!
1 ★Why aren't there recurring options. I want to send the same reminder every month to 2 people. Add that & I'll increase my score. Also my first scheduled text didn't send until I opened the app again. Needs major updates
1 ★Terrible app. Messages gets sent hours later and no rhyme or reason on time. Plus no history on messages sent so you have no idea if and when it was sent unless you go to your messaging app to check individually. Uninstalling.
3 ★The app works fine here with scheduled messages. But I have a problem with special characters in Portuguese language, like á ç Ê etc. Useless to me, unfortunately.
3 ★Very useful app that is painfully glitchy. I used it to send "Happy New Year" to a bunch of people at midnight on Jan 1st. When I rebooted my phone last night at 3 am, this piece of work decided it's time to resend all of these messages at once to all of these people. Now I'm sending my awkward apologies to those I upset with this glitch
3 ★At first this worked fine but then I realised if I schedule multiple texts in the same day, it will send all of them at the latest time! Very bad. I wish there were a history of texts sent. Finally the time selection part of the app is clunky, why not have an option to simply type in the time, rather than scrolling through time slots?
1 ★7/10 of texts get sent without any problems, and 3/10 of texts get sent multiple times and are delayed. You won't be able to know when it could work or fail. This app is risky to use if you're scheduling messages related to your career, professional life, and meetings.
5 ★Its hard to think of reasons to use it, but sometimes I just need it and its super handy! If I need to let someone know something by the morning but I don't want to wake them, or if I get a text from a girl I like and I can't sit on my hands!
1 ★I used this app to remind customers of appointments. It stated sending up to 8 identical messages to the same person! I had to apologize for blowing up their inboxes. THIS APP MADE ME LOOK LIKE A FOOL!
3 ★I hate the UI! Why can I not just type the exact time at which to send? The "time slider" idea is just not good. Sure, it's quick, but what if I want to send at, say, 10:33 for whatever reason? Without having the slider set to show every minute, and thus making it incredibly cumbersome, there is no way. Let me TYPE the date & time, not slide to a "close" entry. Uninstalled due to its UI.
