Messages - Schedule Message option no longer there :( - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

I used to rely on this feature allot. Sometimes you get an idea or want to sent a stupid comment to someone, but it's 2am. With Schedule Message you could set it to whatever time you needed and not feel guilty about it. Do we know if this is coming back? Am I missing the option somewhere?

SMS Scheduling Software?

I would like to set my Kaiser to send pre-written text messages at specific times, does anyone have any idea about any software that does this? Or anyway to do it on the phone now?
For example, next week, I'll be traveling. I would like to write a text wishing my girlfriend a happy birthday, and then have my phone send it to her at 8AM her time, which will be 3AM my time.
Or, as another example, being able to set it so to send other people I work with reminder texts, about deadlines or whatnot, without my having to keep track of doing it myself.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

you are in luck because I have found this recently for my kaiser and it works great. Does scheduling and group texting and you can save the groups too.
Ah, that's brilliant, I'll give it a try.
Muchas Gracias!!
How do I install this.

OK, this is frustrating as hell, do any of you professionals have any ideas??
Each night, I send three to five messages to the same person, say at 0300, 0305, 0310, and 0315.
Almost universally, the first message is delivered, as I can see it crossed off in the Scheduled Messages section of PowerSMS, and it also appears in the Messaging program as sent.
However, the remaining messages, although crossed off as sent in PowerSMS, do not appear to have been sent, and do not appear in the Messaging program as sent?
Any ideas? This is the sole reason I bought PowerSMS--to send scheduled messages to the same person, but it's only sending the first one.
I've tried everything. Soft resets. 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes between messages. Leaving PowerSMS minimized. Closing it entirely. Leaving it open on the desktop. Plugging the phone in, leaving it unplugged but with plenty of power. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it sends a few messages. Most times, it doesn't.
Frankly, this is annoying. The phone works. Messages coming and going are not an issue, EXCEPT when PowerSMS is involved in sending them.
I posted much of this on the developer's site, and his only comment was: "That seems odd, and I don't have an answer for you right off the bat because the behavior is unpredictable. Does it help if you space the messages out a bit more (i.e. try to send them 15 minutes apart instead of 5)? Also, can you soft-reset your device to ensure the memory is clean and nothing else is running in the background? Then see if you can get it to send yourself 3 messages in a row 10-15 minutes apart. One guess is this *may* be related to the power management features of the device. It gets woken up at a certain time, sends the message and goes back to sleep and tries to wake up too quickly. Maybe this is causing the problem?"
Anyone here have any thoughts? What he says makes sense, but I have no idea where to go from there.
What version are you using? The newest version is 1.3 and it may fix the issues.

Thanks for the quick response, yes, I am using 1.3.
When it works, it's a brilliant little program. It just doesn't work very often. I'm tempted to ask for my money back.
You should try these two programs out. They look very promising!

It has a 14 day trial, but is only about $10, which i believe to be a fantastic deal considering all it's features, including export to .csv and .xml files.

Like I said, the phone sends and receives fine. Never an issue. Not that I get many texts at 3AM, but if I do, I can reply.

Google+ Messenger Bug?

Having a weird problem with the Android app for Google+... I left a messaging conversation, and it keeps popping back up when I go back into messenger. This is the case on my tablet, and phone. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing is working. Suggestions?
Bump.

Open google plus
Go to messenger
Long click on the conversation you want gone.
Select leave.
But make sure you are logged out on the other device.
I hope this does what you need.

I've left this conversation several hundred times over the last 4 days. It keeps showing back up. I've cleared data on both devices, and my tablet is actually turned off right now, so logging out isn't the issue.
I have been trying to recreate your problem.
So far, no luck...
Only thing I can think of, maybe the problem isn't on your side but on the side of your conversation partner?
According to google the only way to get back in a conversation is when someone invites you back in.
When you leave a conversation, you’ll no longer receive messages from that conversation and won’t be able to access or view the history of the conversation unless you’re invited back.
Since one-on-one conversations are between you and another person, there’s no way to completely leave them.​
I'm just guessing here. Sorry, I wished I could help you.

Might be it, but it was a one liner and it keeps coming back.
I now have another conversation stuck.
Maybe best to post feedback to the google plus app people themselves ? I don't think there's a problem with your setup, just a bug on google's side ?
The best

If enough people send the same crap, they'll probably notice. if you do find a solution, please let me know. This one intrigues me.

[Request] Google Now Weather Notification Blocker

Would it be an easy task for someone to create a module that disable those annoying weather notifications that Google Now makes? :fingers-crossed:
I know that they can be removed by disabling the weather card completely, but I'd like to be able to still see the card when I go into Now but use other things (or nothing lol) to show me the weather in my notification shade. Also, using an app (like the NotifyClean module) can't really hide the notifications because they're all different. You might not see the one for "64 - Showers" anymore but the rest will still show and it's not practical to do this for every weather condition you encounter. Blocking notifications for the whole app will prevent you from getting more important notifications like your Reminders, so that won't work either.
I've searched around and seen that some other people are after this too but there haven't been any real solutions so I thought I'd ask here. Can it be done? Thanks in advance for any help!
Always can be done
Now,I can look into the app for found a way ti do this.But I will not kid yourself because my only phone is updated to lollipop and xposed here doesn't work,so,if no one want to do this module,I will do,if I'm able, later.

Hola
Thanks for the feedback, I was literally looking into this like a few minutes ago, and I figured that they removed it due to the physical slider like you mentioned. IMHO, that is rather daft... like the OP I want an automated schedule available to me.
I'll have to look into an app if no know replies soon with a recommendation.
Thanks.

App permission monitor stating the obvious on SMS?

Has anyone seen this App permission monitor pop up while doing something completely normal and keep letting you know every time you use it? For me, I'm using Google Messages as my default SMS app, and this thing pops up telling me "1 apps have been detected using 1 permissions" and lists Messages | SMS.
OBVIOUSLY.
What's even stranger is that I went to app permissions and it says that Messages is authorized for SMS, just like I okay'd it when Messages was set as the default SMS app. What gives? I think this might come in handy when an app goes rogue, using permissions without me saying it was okay to do so, but in this case, it's like saying "water is wet." When you click on the notification, it says that Messages has been using permissions in the background.... What?
Any thoughts on how to okay this with App permission monitor so I can text without this warning all the time (and no, I'm not about to hide notifications of it since it could be helpful in the future).
Go into Settings > Lock Screen and Security > App Permissions Monitor and turn it off.

Not helpful. Please read what I wrote again. I think the app could possibly be useful, but it just needs to be corrected.
You can actually go in and tell it to not report permission uses for specific apps instead of turning it off completely. Instead of clicking the rifle just click on the words so permission monitor and it'll give the full list of apps and you can shut off reporting for apps you trust.

THANK YOU. This is what I was looking for. I didn't know what you were referring to at first, I was just getting the notification because I didn't see it in Settings (there is so much stuff in there now, you just about have to use the search feature for everything these days!), but now that I found it, I clicked on the words, not the toggle switch, and set Messages to NOT monitor. Perfect, thank you.
I am kind of confused. What did you search to make it go away? This is getting so annoying because it is always telling me textra is using SMS and I am not sure what to do to make it stop. Like you I would still like to keep the monitor on I just wish it would stop telling me what I already know.

I was a little confused as well so this is what I did to correct it.
SETTINGS >> LOCK SCREEN AND SECURITY >> APP PERMISSION MONITOR
From there you should go down to the android Messages app and toggle it to off. That will disable giving the warning every time you send a message.
Hope that helps.

You do know they legit just told you how to do it.... you dont have to be mean about it. and then stating "THIS" is what im looking for. Like they told you how to get there, you click the name. if you went onto there to just hit the toggle without looking/investigating around, ie. pressing the section instead, then you arent probably getting the most out of your phones.
I suggest playing around in your settings and everything to get the most out of your phone.
I legit just made this account to tell you this because the person helped you and you seemed to speak rude to them.

I am assuming you are using a 3rd party messaging app from the play store?
I am still getting the notifications even though for instance Contacts is allowed to be used by Android Messages, I get the notification everytime I send or receive a text.
I tried turning the monitor off completely, still getting notifications.
All since I upgraded to a new Samsung patch last night on my S8+.
In fact I got the notification just now after I toggled the setting to off...I checked and the toggle is back on.

Can Not Thank You Enough! I could not figure out how to get that to stop to save me and my OCD couldn't take anymore of those notifications as it was always about my chosen text app. Turning off all didn't work why I didn't think to try just the one is beyond me. So thanks again and this is why I love this Forum!
