Have you ever wanted to schedule your email to send later? Perhaps you anticipate that you will be traveling and need to send out an email at a specific date or time, and you know won’t have an internet connection. The good news is that if scheduling your emails is something you might be interested in, Google has got your back.The company has recently announced that they are rolling out the scheduling feature to Gmail users as we speak. It was previously hinted that the feature could be coming soon, and now it looks like it has. Previously users had to rely on third-party extensions in order to schedule emails, but now it looks like the feature will be baked into Gmail itself.
According to Google, “We understand that work can often carry over to non-business hours, but it’s important to be considerate of everyone’s downtime. We want to make it easier to respect everyone’s digital well-being, so we’re adding a new feature to Gmail that allows you to choose when an email should be sent. Just write your email as you normally would, then schedule it to arrive in your recipient’s inbox at a later date and time.”
All users have to do to schedule an email is click the arrow at the “Send” button, select a time and date, and they’ll be good to go.
