I haven’t seen such so far. A similar issue: > [@Reminder Email Messages to a Group](https://support.delta.chat/t/reminder-email-messages-to-a-group/2170): > > I’m trying to figure out how to send out automatic reminder emails to a Delta group. Group: is a team. Needs to be reminded to fill out Covid questions B4 coming to practice. They all must read and reply to the message. I know how to create a reoccurring email in my traditional email program, but I don’t know how to send that email (daily) to the group so the whole team gets it at the same time. Ideas? Edit Maybe there is some options like this using Chat Bots? Delta Chat version - All It would be advantageous if we had more event driven bots, such as a weather bot proactively notifying us about a storm approaching so we could close the windows. Also imagine a game matchmaking bot that observed the presence of people in groups and propose to have a match when it sees a sufficient number of people who had played the given game in the past are around at the same time. A related question is how to schedule actions and messages in general, and that could be approximated client side, solved elegantly via a chatmail extension or as the kludge of using a similar bot for this purpose. If such bots could run client side at our friends and if they only had access to the encrypted message body, it wouldn’t be that bad. > [@"Send later" for messages](https://support.delta.chat/t/send-later-for-messages/2168): > > Expected behavior I can schedule a message to be sent at a specified time in the future, either to myself (great for reminders) or others.

We have different schedules, so there is times when I want to send a chat at three in the morning but I know that they have their notifications turned on because normally chats from Delta use attention. I would love if there was a way to defer or schedule a post to go out during their waking hours so I can queue them up instead of having to remember something like scheduling a dog visit … ---

The event-countdown app is maybe slightly adjacent? Not really the same thing, if you want to be sent an e-mail at a specific time. Timezones would be a concern for a bot. I agree that being able to auto-send prearranged messages to oneself or a group at a set time would be superior. ---

If it’s still required I could add time specific reminders to my tasks bot and publish it for everyone? ---

More available code \>\> less available code; are you going to publish the code you have running on the server or just the bot directly? ---

Did anyone build this? I’ve been using a self-hosted “Secretary” dcbot the past couple months: it does reminders programmatically i.e. “remind me at 6pm to take out recycling” → messages me “take out recycling”, but it also manages a calendar for me through CALDAV.
