I followed instruction but when tapping plus sign and then more, send later does not appear.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 18
This feature worked after I upgraded to iOS 18...today (2 days later), it's gone. I've tried testing it on multiple recipients (iPhone and Android users) and myself. Additionally, I've restarted the phone to no success. The ability to schedule texts was one of the key features that kept me on Android for years...please fix this ASAP
Careful. Criticizing Apple they remove your comment!
they wont actually do anything about making it work. Except suggest this forum!
getting very fed up with Apple.
As of 16 Nov 24, still doesn’t work on my IPhone 16, IOS 18 18.1
This one didn’t work for me, unfortunately
I've turned off all focus settings still no send later option except for the one Iphone contact I have thats always had the options since this update just all my other contacts don't have the option so far this only works between iphone and iphone it will not work with iPhone to Android or an older flip phone. The only thing I've not tried is factory reseting the device I'm on iPhone 14 with ios 18.
you are a truly awesome person hadn't thought to contact support directly. and you are 100% that we are comprehending that "Any Device" means just that any device that has cell or texting services is what is supposed to be supported just like it is on android. on android you can schedule messages no issues doesn't matter if they're on a nokia phone from the early 2000s or if they're on a iphone just works. after this ordeal because i only have one or two friends with iphone i am switching back to androids.
Tried all options provided in this forum. The fact that it doesn’t work when texting non iPhone users shows the low level of developer intelligence.
This is my first iPhone, BIG MISTAKE. I HATE it. Will not buy another one.
My Samsung S8 had this ability in 2018 regardless of the recipients phone make and model.
If you criticize Apple. They just remove your comments.
read this because it is going to disappear!
They will not fix the problem but will brag they that they provided “Delayed messaging “ even when most of us cannot use it!
This absolutely worked. I thought ov everything else. Checked keyboards. Tried to send to other iPhone users. It’s the “focus” setting👏🏽 Thank you!!!
It only works on other iPhones and it’s not even sending until you go back and send the message manually. What a joke
“So what’s the answer?”
Wait and see if the EU sues Apple… ?
Stop texting android users… ?
Live with it as Apple intended.
Typical Apple “send later” ONLY works on Apple devices. Ridiculous android has had this since at least 2010. What does timing a message have to do with OS. Fix it Apple!
I can no longer send delayed Messages. Was working after last update and even earlier today. Now no choice to delay send. Please advise
I tried this, and I also tried engaging the focus, but neither of these have fixed my situation. Maybe I will reboot my phone and then maybe it will work. Please God.
The update stipulates that the “Send Later” function is only for IOS users via messenger. Does not work for SMS.
Really a bummer because Apple is the only one what doesn’t have this text function. It’s disappointing. Hopefully, this will be resolved.
Upon upgrading the iOS operating system, the artificial intelligence feature was present. However, upon joining the waitlist and receiving the feature, it disappeared. I am curious to know if Apple needs to release a new update to address this issue or if it is a separate problem.
"Send Later" option not appearing in Message app iOS 18
