How sending works, and what it needs
At the scheduled time SKEDit opens WhatsApp on your phone and sends the message using Android’s accessibility service, the same way a person would tap. Because of this:
- The phone must be on and online at the scheduled time.
- The screen lock can stay on: SKEDit can unlock the phone at the scheduled time with a PIN or password you save in the app (pattern and fingerprint unlock are not supported). Smart Lock, which stays active for 4 hours at a time, or no screen lock also work.
- Battery optimisation must be turned off for SKEDit, and auto-start turned on for SKEDit on Xiaomi, Huawei, OPPO and Vivo phones. Most failed sends come from these two settings. Setup guide.
- Two messages must not be scheduled for the same minute.
- WhatsApp credentials are never stored or accessed. On Android, SKEDit works with the normal WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business app on the phone.
