Just a thought for those of us who text friends/loved ones late at night - you want them to know you've replied, and in as good a time as possible - but you don't necessarily want to wake them up to do so. Would O2 be able to provide a delay on the alert of a text message - eg, start your message with *delay 7am* and the message is delivered but with minimal flashing/beeping until 7am? Or would this be something Apple would have to do… Or a combo of the two?
What do you think, could this take off?

Good to get some responses, thanks guys.
I suppose it is the problem with a poor memory that is the issue. Working busy nights, I don't want to wake someone up but I do want to get the reply sent. If I don't do it when I get the chance, I might miss it later. The android delay feature would do it fine I suppose. Doesn't quite give that nice touch of them knowing you replied immediately but didn't want to wake them though. Call me a softie.

I am so glad you posted this @Anonymous I had no idea that this was already a feature on my Samsung S3 and due to you (and piperdog) I know now
As I said my need is more to do with sending birthday /anniversary wishes, though having worked nights I have wanted to send a reminder to some people and until now have done the text and saved it to draft....which means I have to remember to send it in the morning....:smileysad:
Now... I have used the schedule facility twice already....:smileywink:
