How-To use the Multi-Contact Selection feature

SKEDit v2.9.8 introduces an exciting new feature: Multi-Contact Selection. With Multi-Contact Selection, you can now select many contacts, at once, as recipients for your scheduled message.

Note: Multi-contact selection is a locked feature, exclusive for Premium subscribers.

Recommendation: Although there is no implemented restriction, we recommend that users perform multi-selection in smaller chunks (50 contact max) at once. Some devices will fail to successfully add a massive number of contacts in one multi-selection process. 

This article contains the following sections:

• Requirements
• To activate Multi-Contact Selection mode

Requirements

• Your device's language must be either English, Portuguese, Spanish, or Arabic

Note: Devices using other languages will not be able to activate 
Multi-Contact Selection correctly.

To change your device's language: Go to Settings, search for and 
select Add language. From there, select your desired language. 

To activate Multi-Contact Selection mode

1. In SKEDit’s Scheduling Screen, tap
   
   
2. Long-press on a contact's profile picture to enter Multi-Contact Selection mode.
   

   Note: Long-pressing the contact’s name instead will not allow you to
   complete selection. You must make sure to long-press the contact’s 
   profile picture.

   
   
   
3. Select the contacts you wish to add as recipients for your message scheduling.
   

   Note: After activating multi-contact selection mode correctly, you 
   can tap anywhere on a contact’s chat to add it to the selection. 
   Only the first contact to be selected must be through a long-press 
   on the profile picture.

   
   
   
4. Tap  in the bottom right of the screen to proceed with selection.
   

   Note: To clear the selection and return to SKEDit, you must tap on 
   the WhatsApp back button . Using the device's back button instead will confirm selection and add the selected contacts as recipients 
   for your message.

5. You will be redirected to SKEDit’s scheduling screen to complete scheduling your message.
   
   

Note: You can only multi-select contacts whom you have chatted with 
before.
