Delayed publications on VKontakte are a wonderful and convenient option that allows you to set up posting posts on a timer.

In other words, you can create an entry in own community or a wall post that will be posted in the future (tomorrow, in a month, in a year, at any time you specify).

VKontakte timer is special tool, which can be used by every member of the social network. A timer is attached to your recordings, just like photos or videos, surveys or documents, and goes off at exactly the specified time.

The only condition is that the platform for delayed publications must be yours and not someone else’s. That is, you will not be able to create a pending post on a friend’s wall or in someone else’s group where you are not an administrator. The VKontakte timer also does not work in personal messages, in other people's communities, on other people's pages, but this does not in the least diminish its importance.

If you are leading your own group or public page VK, the timer should become your permanent tool, since with its help you can plan a publication schedule for the entire next week in 1 hour!

It is with the help of deferred publications that the administration popular communities VKontakte provides them frequent updates, regular publication of posts and news. Without a timer, a person would have to stay on the social network for days, without sleep or rest, ensuring the release of new entries.

In this step by step instructions site site (Copy Ru) we will learn how to quickly create delayed publications, which themselves will be published on a designated day, at a given time.

We believe that this information will be useful to all VKontakte users, even to understand the principle of operation of their favorite communities ().

Postponed publications on VKontakte: step-by-step instructions

Step #1

As an example, let's create a post on our own wall that will appear at the time and date we need. Let's go to our page, to our profile, to start working with the wall of our account.

Step #2

Place the mouse cursor in the window for posting messages on your wall and select the “More” - “TIMER” option.

Step #3

If everything is done correctly, the “Publication Time” block appears under the message line, where you can independently indicate the Date and Time of publication of our entry. By clicking on the date, we open calendar grid, where we can change both the date and the month. By clicking on the time, we open the tape with hours or minutes.

Publication time:

Posting date:

Step #4

So, in this step-by-step instructions, we have chosen a time and date for delayed publication: February 1, 2017 at 10 hours and 56 minutes. Now that the VK timer is set, we simply create standard notation, which will be published at the designated time.

You can also add to this entry:

  • text entries;
  • videos;
  • audio recordings;
  • links (internal and external);
  • documents and files;
  • photographs and pictures;
  • notes, surveys and maps.

In fact, you can add anything you see fit to a deferred post, but it will be published within the time specified on the timer.

To launch the delayed time option, click the “Queue” button.

Step #5

To view the added timer entries, click on the “Delayed” line (this line also indicates their number, in our case - one):

To edit the VK timer and edit the created entry, click directly on the publication date, a window will appear, and click “Edit”:

Or move the cursor to the upper right corner of this note - then the “Edit” option will appear. We tried to note all this in the screenshot below:

Clicking on “Delete Entry” will simply delete your entry along with the timer. In the same way, you can delete a pending publication from the editing page.

IMPORTANT: there can be many records with a timer. Their main condition is that the publication time does not overlap, so that one entry does not overlap in time with another. And so - create at least 10, at least 100 of them for the whole next month!

VK group administration

That's how with this simple option you could schedule adding news on your wall or wall own group where you are an administrator. By the way, these same functions are also used to make money on a social network when you manage other people’s communities or public pages.

You can easily get hired to work in some group and start updating it for some monetary reward. There is a lot of such work today, and every person can cope with it.

SMS scheduler a couple of lifesavers when sending congratulations. I always forget to congratulate someone on their birthday or some other holiday. This is because I am now constantly at home with a small child, and sometimes I not only forget what date it is, but I also don’t remember the day of the week. And remembering when and who’s birthday is not so easy, of course, if these are not your closest people. But with an SMS scheduler, this problem disappears - you wrote down a congratulation, scheduled it for a specific date and time, and you can forget about this problem.

SMS scheduler helps me myself to complete any tasks. I usually write down what I need to buy, do and plan for certain time sending SMS to your number. Sometimes the SMS scheduler helps me out this way. For example, we often forget to buy salt, sugar, etc. in the store, despite the fact that we walk around the store and look at it (maybe I’m just that absent-minded). You can pre-schedule an SMS “buy sugar” for the approximate time of your stay in the store, and the SMS scheduler will help you remember to buy such little things.

SMS scheduler It also helps you take care of yourself. In the morning I planned to make a face mask in the evening, and the SMS planner will help remind me. Well, or, for example, you can remind them to take medicine, do something, etc.
Of all the SMS schedulers, I chose this one because it is easier to use. There is no need to remember phone numbers, as is done in others similar programs. It is very convenient that when you send an SMS, the program asks you to send the SMS now or postpone it. Thanks to the author for the program.

SMS is a convenient and useful thing. Without them it’s like without hands. But do you always send short messages during? Have you ever, in a hurry, confused the recipients, or, even worse, completely forgotten about the need to send? The Delayd app aims to solve this problem.

The startup Tinyyo Limited has developed a messaging service that allows you to set the sending time for SMS messages and publications in social networks. The main feature of the program is the ability to set the sending time in advance regular SMS or multimedia messages with photos and videos to contacts in address book. The user sets the time and date of sending, the text of the message, and selects one or more recipients. It is possible to edit scheduled messages.

As a result, you don’t have to worry about forgetting to congratulate one of your friends or relatives on their birthday if you configure Delayd in advance to send SMS greetings via certain dates. Did you find that you've run out of milk and your missus is at an important meeting that ends at seven? Instruct Delayd that the message “Honey, don’t forget to buy milk” should be sent after seven o’clock. The SMS will not distract her from her work and will arrive just in time.


In the same way you can wake up your Friend's SMS who asked for this or to distribute congratulations in advance before the holiday. There can be many reasons, but there is only one solution – Delayd.

Messages can be divided into groups: birthdays, anniversaries and social group. Apparently, they meant generally accepted holidays and some absolutely everyday nuances. You can also specify whether the offer should remind you to send a message, and whether the newsletter should be sent on some cyclical basis (every day, week, month, year).

The application continues to work even after reboot iPhone. All data is saved on the service, so scheduled messages will be sent even if the smartphone’s battery is completely drained.


Overall, the idea behind the app is very interesting, although not innovative. The interface is simple and visually very pleasing. The main drawback of the service is that Russia is not yet on the list of countries in which Delayd operates. It is supported in the USA, UK, Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Brunei, Canada, China, Gambia, India, Israel, Pakistan, South Africa. But the developers promise to regularly expand the list of regions, so Russian users In any case, it’s worth downloading the application to immediately find out about the release of the corresponding update.

Delayd is free and offers 50 shipments free SMS. Messages over the limit are charged separately: $0.99 for 50 messages, $1.99 for 100 messages, $2.99 ​​for 250 SMS and $3.99 for 500 SMS.

There are situations when it is necessary to send important message at a certain point in time. For example, a reminder about dinner to your partner exactly one hour before the meeting. Or automatic congratulations on your birthday or anniversary. This way, you will avoid unwanted conversations that start with the phrase “did you forget?”

We are all busy with our own affairs and tend to forget, so some free apps on Android will avoid many problems. Thanks to the following 4 apps, you can schedule your message in advance.

1. Do It Later

This application is the best modern SMS scheduler.

3.Schedule SMS

This application is practically no different from the two above, with the exception of one feature: the ability to listen to a scheduled message.

The interface of Schedule SMS is quite clean and nice, we have no complaints. The only drawback I found is that you can send an SMS message on a schedule, but there is no option to set the message to be sent again.

4. SMS Planning

All of the apps in this article are fast and easy to use, but SMS Planning is truly the fastest of the bunch because it's so damn simple.

One nice feature is that you can view all sent messages. This way you can check when and to whom the application sent the message.

Please note that SMS Planning uses the SIM card that is installed by default on your Android smartphone. So if you want to send a message from another SIM card, then you need to change the default SIM card in Android settings.
