Broadcast list failing reason is that skedit searchs contact screen where it won't find the broadcast list.

Ramesh Yadav
When I schedule a broadcast list.. The app goes in screen where you can search new contacts from phone book instead of main whatsapp screen. Due to which it cannot find broadcast list and fails. Please fix this in next version.

    Hi Dear,

     

    Thank you for contacting SKEDit's Customer Success Team.

     

    Due to recent changes in WhatsApp's latest version, users can no longer forward a message to a Broadcast List. If you go to the WhatsApp app and you try to forward any message from within the app itself, you will notice that you are not able to find that list for selection.

     

    This update has impacted in SKEDit's automation to Broadcast Lists and SKEDit groups containing a Broadcast List as a recipient. Our team is investigating the issue further; we will surely update if anything changes from WhatsApp's side. Unfortunately, right now, there is no way anymore to schedule a message to a Broadcast List.

     

    A workaround solution is to use SKEDit Groups. You can create a SKEDit Group and add to it all the recipients that you wish to message at once. The recipients of a SKEDit group can be either single contacts or WhatsApp groups. Note that, with SKEDit Groups a drawback of SKEDit groups is that messaging 256 contacts takes more time than using a Broadcast List.

     

    We appreciate your understanding,

    Customer Success Team.

    Same Problem. This is happening because WhatsApp was updated and broadcast lists will not be found anymore with the way Skedit works.

    Skedit needs to change the way of sending messages to broadcast lists.. 

    We really need this for yesterday, every day is like hell without this function. I believe a lot of people here would pay for this service, if needed.
