Midnight Owl

It's 11pm. Schedule send exists.

A Midnight Owl messages at 11pm or on weekends and expects a reply.

Your phone, Sunday night. Watch it, or drag the night along. Then flip Schedule send and play it again. Poke the owl to make it talk.

    The fix

    Schedule send, app by app

    Write it whenever you like. Send it when people are at work. Every big work app can hold a message until morning.

    Slack

    1. Write the message.
    2. Click the arrow next to Send. On a phone, press and hold Send.
    3. Pick a time, like Monday at 9:00. You can still edit or cancel it until then.

    Gmail

    1. Write the email.
    2. Click the arrow next to Send, then Schedule send. On a phone, tap the three dots, then Schedule send.
    3. Pick a time. The email waits in your Scheduled folder.

    Outlook

    1. Write the email.
    2. Click the arrow next to Send, then Schedule send. In classic Outlook for Windows, use Delay Delivery.
    3. Pick a time. The email waits in Drafts until then.

    Teams

    1. Write the message.
    2. Right-click Send. On a phone, press and hold it.
    3. Pick a time, up to a week ahead.
    Anonymous

    Send it to a coworker.

    Send this page instead of saying it. A first name is optional, and it lives only in the link, so it never reaches our server or the link preview.
