Schedule a message

Free

Your message is encrypted on your device. To email the link at the right moment, we keep the link and the address until then, so we could technically read a scheduled message. Both are deleted the moment the email is sent. They can read it for 30 days.

How it works

Three steps, then forget about it

  1. 1Write it

    Type your message. Paste a link if you want to share photos or a video.

  2. 2Pick who and when

    Their email, the date and the minute. Your name, or Send anonymously.

  3. 3It arrives on time

    At that moment they get an email with a private link to read it. Until then, you can edit or cancel.

Ideas

For the moments you don't want to miss.

Midnight birthday wishes

Be the first message they read, even if you're asleep.

Tell someone what they mean to you, without your name, on a day it will matter.

A nudge at the right time

Exam day good luck, an anniversary, or a reminder to a friend before the big day.

A Time Capsule reaches them now with a countdown, and opens later. Schedule Message is a surprise.

Good to know

Schedule Message questions

What is Schedule Message?

Write a message now and pick a date and time. At that moment we email the person a private link to read it. Until then they get nothing and know nothing.

Can I send it anonymously?

Yes. Tick "Send anonymously" and the email and the message only say "Someone". Leave your name in if you want them to know it is you.

Can I change or cancel it?

Yes, any time before it is sent. Messages you schedule are listed on this page in your browser, with Edit and Cancel. Save the private edit link to change it from another device.

How far ahead can I schedule?

From one minute from now up to a year ahead, to the minute.

Can DiffWeb read it?

Your browser encrypts the message before it is sent. To email the link at the right moment we have to keep the link and the address until then, so for scheduled messages we could technically open it. We delete the address and the link as soon as the email goes out.

Can I add photos or files?

A scheduled message is text, up to 10,000 characters. Paste a Google Drive, Dropbox or YouTube link for photos and videos. To share a file that unlocks later, use Time Capsule.

How long can they read it?

For 30 days after it is sent, as many times as they like. Then it is deleted.

Say it now. Let it land later.

Free, no sign-up, no phone number. Anonymous if you like.
