Summary

If there's one thing that gets my goat it's when I've forgotten someone's birthday or – even worse, perhaps – an appointment. I'm a fairly organised person and quickly realised the potential of apps that help users keep on top of due dates, rendez-vous and more. I recently tried out Schedalls to see whether it's a good fit; find out more in today's review.

I try my best, but I manage to forget appointments like nobody's business, including important appointments and birthdays. I decided to stop the madness and installed Schedalls—and I must say that the app has made a positive difference in my life.

Schedalls is an app that allows users to create SMS in advance and then select a time and date at which the SMS in question is to be sent. You may opt to send the message to more than one recipient, meaning that well wishes are sent out to all your friends and colleagues just after midnight on New Year's Eve, for instance. There's also an option for setting the app to send out your SMS at a later point in time, just in case there's no network coverage at the moment the message is meant to go out.

More fun features: Schedalls will post automatic Facebook status updates, provided you go for the in-app purchase that will unlock this feature (EUR1.00). I'm happy to report that this feature works out very nicely.
Should you wish to post on a friend's wall you will have to sync Facebook contacts with the smartphone/tablet. Next, sign in via the Schedall settings and you're good to go.

Check what's coming up next on Schedalls' list where you can also review previously sent messages. You can also set up templates that can be sent out for various occasions.

Bottom line:

Schedalls leaves little to be desired. It runs very smoothly, SMS messages arrive right on the button and the Facebook function is a fun extra feature. Next up: Email and Twitter support.

 

Screen & Controls

Section rating:

Full marks for Schedalls in this category. The layout and navigation of the application are top notch. It doesn't take any time at all to get one's bearing and the app comes with a modern looking design.

 

Speed & Stability

Section rating:

Very good performance in this category also. Schedalls is fast, smooth and dependable.

 

Price/Performance Ratio

Section rating:

Schedalls is free from Google Play and doesn't display any ad banners. The free version doesn't support the Facebook feature; should you want it you will have to go for the in-app purchase for EUR1.00.

AWESOME APP!!! I've got a shocking memory, but this way I can schedule my SMS's when I think of them. AWESOME!

Costs you money by sending out hundreds of message Sooner or later this app will crash and reset it's "sent" flags. It happened to me a fortnight ago and sent every message I had every scheduled multiple times to everyone - costing me money and making me look like an idiot. * Messages I did not want people to know I had scheduled. * Inappropriate greeting messages. * Business contact messages. * Messages to ex girlfriends etc. I emailed the maker and they said they'd never heard of the problem, yet looking through the reviews here shows that it is a consistent problem. So the developers have lied and covered it up. They have not got back to me after my initial email, in spite of repeated attempts. Find another schedule app, as this one is a ticking time bomb.

The best sms scheduler

Must have app This app is a lifesaver. I have the facebook add on and use sms and facebook to sent those socially expected birthay and holiday messages, as well as those 'Don't let me forget' reminders. I just wish it worked with email (primarily corporate sync), Twitter, and Google+.

retry failed plugins button? Miss the one click retry failed plugins button under menu, where did it go? Opening up every text to make sure it sent (because the icons look the same) seems redundant. Also does not allow me to scroll down, have to tip my phone to side in order to set sending date and time. Galaxy S

Seearching for contacts is near-impossible on htc magic. Does not filter contacts to only mobile.

No support? Facebook plug in resets config and you have to authorize it every day in order to post. After a post if you try to view the notification it force closes, sent emails to developer and there hasn't been a response in Weeks -HTC EVO 3D
