Getting Started with SKEDit: Requirements & Best Practices

SKEDit allows you to schedule and automate messages on Android. Before using it, it’s important to understand how it works and what to expect.

How SKEDit Works

SKEDit does not send messages from the cloud.
Instead, it uses your device to send messages at the scheduled time.

This means:

• Your phone must be ON
• Your phone must be connected to the internet
• SKEDit must be properly set up on your device

Before You Schedule Your First Message

To start scheduling:

• Open SKEDit
• Tap the (+) button on the home screen (Pending screen)
• Select a scheduling channel (e.g., WhatsApp, SMS, Email)
• You will be redirected to the scheduling screen

Before scheduling your message:

• Tap the red triangle at the top
• Complete all required setup steps until all warnings disappear

If setup is not completed, messages may fail to send.

Scheduling Best Practices

To avoid issues:

• Do not schedule multiple messages at the exact same time

• Leave a minimum of 3–5 minutes between scheduled messages when sending to a single recipient

• Increase the time gap if each scheduled message includes multiple recipients

This ensures SKEDit has enough time to complete each sending process properly.

Naming Best Practices

To avoid contact-matching issues:

• Do not use duplicate names for contacts or groups
• Avoid emojis in names
• Avoid numeric prefixes like "001 John"
• Rename broadcast lists before using them

Screen Lock Behavior

SKEDit supports sending messages even when your device is locked.

Supported screen locks:

• PIN code
• Passcode
• Fingerprint
• Face recognition

Not supported:

• Pattern lock

If you are using a pattern lock, scheduled messages may fail.
Switch to a supported screen lock type for best results.
