If you use Google Voice, you know what I mean - text messages come to you in multiple channels - the Web page for Voice, your Phone, and your Email. You can respond in various ways too, one of them being to Reply to the Email. I thought I was pretty special one day when it dawned on me that because I can "Schedule Send" for a gmail, this meant that I could hit Reply to a text-message-email and Schedule it for a given time. (like, Happy Birthday on their birthday at 4:45 am so that I will be the first to wish them, and so they think I really get up at 445!)
Little did I know until just now that if you kind of hard-swipe-plus-swipe-upwards on the SEND button of my regular Messages app (meaning my real cell phone number, not google voice), I can also schedule send.
Another reason Google voice + using one's own cell # both have their benefits.
PS, I also thought I was pretty special when I discovered that I could View, Respond, and Create messages on the Web for my regular cell # messages, using my phone's regular built-in Messages . All you have to do is go to https://messages.google.com/web/conversations and press a button to Sync. (for Androids, of course)
Nowadays it's rare that I do any texting using my thumbs on my phone, it's all using a regular keyboard on the web - cool stuff! Maybe everyone already knew all these things, in that case just chuckle and cut me some slack - today's my birthday.
