Delay the delivery of a message
I'd like to be able to delay the delivery of an individual teams message.
Useful to schedule announcements and when working across timezones...

This would be great, each day we send a schedule of team members that will be present on that specific day. I normally set up this "Cube Schedule" to be delay delivered on Outlook but it would be great to be able to delay delivery that way I can set it up in teams

Would LOVE to see this feature! Would really help communicate across different time zones, catching up on work after hours from a holiday or vacation, and with more flexible work arrangements becoming increasingly popular.

I like to deliver delayed if the person is presenting something.
Also, I respect Deep work concept of Cal NewPort.
So, I don't want to send low priority messages as and when to go.
I do a work around now - I keep my messages in oneNote and paste and send only at end of my deep work session. -

Hi,
This would be a good feature to have if you don't want to disturb someone in the middle of the night or the weekend. Hopefully it can be implemented soon!

This would be a very nice feature, same as Delivery Options in Outlook which we use regularly.

I have seen 3 different voting forums now:

is there a way to group them all together? -

I am a night owl who gets her best ideas at 3am, not to mention my team is distributed across time zones. I do not need my colleagues thinking that I have unhealthy work habits, that I am virtue signalling, or that I expect a reply right away. I just need to get the idea out, and Gmail is not an equal substitute when the idea does not necessitate an email. Shouldn’t be on the user to curb their own behavior.

Would really appreciate this feature, especially with a "when available" option in addition to a set date/time

Yes delay message until recipient is available just add it to the importance section.

And 2-3 click's max, please, not 37 clicks, 5 layers deep.
See Textra's delay text send option. -

I absolutely need this feature. As an EA - I have many executives that need to be reminded of certain things all day long. If I can set them up before hand it would help immensely.

Would indeed be very useful. I would also like the option to link this feature to the "Notify when available" function in Chats (I want the message to go out when the person is available again).

Delay Delivery is an awesome feature on Outlook. Teams can be invasive if you are sending messages and people's phone and computers are "pinging" at all sorts of hours.
For work/life balance, this would be a fantastic initiative! -
