Scheduled texts (on Bulk Texter Pro) allows for date/time in the past

Open stacksjb opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

When scheduling a message to send, Bulk Texter Pro allows you to select a date/time in the past; it should not let you do that.

To further improve the feature, two requests would be:

  1. It would be great if the date/time was a bit clearer - adding the timezone (I assume, but it isn't clear, that it is local?
  2. Adding a calculated "In days" (or hours/minutes etc) would also make that clear.

Thanks for the feedback!

  1. Yes, it's in your local time zone.
  2. That's a great idea, I've added that to the backlog and will post back on this thread when it's done.

Also, as an FYI, Bulk Texter Pro subscribers can email us at [email protected] to request support directly.

Related - I found that if your computer or browser is offline, the messages will be missed. I should have hte option to re-send if desired.

That is correct, the computer needs to be on and unlocked for Bulk Texter Pro to send texts, per the FAQ: https://www.bulktexterpro.com/docs/faq/#will-bulk-texter-pro-still-send-texts-if-my-computer-is-asleep--locked--hibernating--turned-off

Bulk Texter Pro supports re-sending texts via the History tab, see this article: https://www.bulktexterpro.com/docs/getting-started/resending-messages/

Hi @brismuth We currently have an issue with Google Voice, as it automatically stops when texting.
