Twitter now allows all users to schedule the publication of a tweet in advance from its web interface.
You can now schedule the sending of your tweets. The microblogging platform officially deployed its functionality a few days ago, after testing it with a small number of users for several months.
Available to all users from the Twitter web interface, it is integrated directly into the window for composing a tweet. Here is how to use it.
1. Write a new tweet
After logging into your Twitter account from the platform’s web interface, click on the Tweet button to open a window for composing a tweet, or place the cursor directly in the What’s new area at the top of the news feed and write the tweet to schedule.
2. Schedule the tweet
Once your message is complete, click on the icon showing a calendar topped with a clock to the right of the grafted tools in the message publication window.
In the Schedule window that appears, enter the date and time at which you want the message to be published and validate by clicking Confirm.
Then validate your tweet by clicking on Schedule.
3. Edit or delete a scheduled tweet
If you want to edit or delete a scheduled tweet, reopen the window for composing a new tweet, and click on the Unsent Tweets menu.
Then go to the Scheduled tab and click on the tweet to modify or delete.
You can then modify its content, but also change the date and time of publication of the message by clicking on the programming button.
Finally, you can simply cancel the publication of the tweet by clicking on the Delete button grafted at the top right of the message programming window.
You will then have to cancel the message by clicking on the cross, then on the Delete button to permanently delete it.
