### 4/5 — Helpful, but could be better

*2026-07-12*

I got this app so that I could have messages to be sent to multiple people at once. The app reminds you to do so, but I wish I didn’t have to actually send the message. I wish it would send the message at the time that I desired for it to be sent without me having to actually prompt it to do so.

**Developer response:** Wanted to let you know: the app now offers automatic texting!

### 4/5 — My Kyew Wish List

*2026-04-01*

I like the app, mainly because it was so hard finding an iPhone app that would allow me to schedule group texts and send them as separate messages. My wish is for an easier way to add contacts, because if you’ve loaded 15 names, but click the Back button by accident, you have to start your list all over. Also, an automatic send feature would be wonderful! Yea, you can schedule texts, but if you want to send them separately, at the designated time you have to stop what you’re doing and send each one manually. Please give the option to send as a group or separately, then auto-send the messages at the scheduled time. If you guys could do THAT, I would literally jump for joy.

**Developer response:** Wanted to let you know: the app now offers automatic texting!

Also, the new updated app includes much easier contact and group management tools.

### 2/5 — It forgets notifications

*2025-12-21*

This app would be great and do exactly what I need except that when you have more than one text scheduled to go out at a time it gives you multiple notifications (as expected) but when you tap one of them it just forgets the other one. It works if you only need to send one text a day but if you have more than one at a time, it becomes a mess and forget your texts. Hope they can fix this bug because I would love to use this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We will look into this - can you clarify if you're not receiving alerts or that after tapping one alert all the other alerts are removed?

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2025-12-13, version 4.40*

It works well for what I need it for. I think it is the best one on the market.

### 2/5 — Misleading

*2025-09-09, version 4.20*

Not free. Free for a short period of time maybe a week or two, then it won’t let you schedule without a subscription. It works though, but you should know going in it’s not free.

### 2/5 — Not good

*2025-08-13, version 4.20*

I don’t like the fact that I have to approve the text before it can be sent EVERY TIME and that you keep asking me to subscribe and I have.

### 2/5 — Not good

*2025-07-31, version 4.20*

I don’t like the fact that I have to approve the text before it can be sent EVERY TIME and that you keep asking me to subscribe and I have.

### 4/5 — Scheduling time

*2025-03-31, version 4.11*

Great tool for scheduling group texts at later times

### 4/5 — Delivers as promised

*2025-02-18*

All in all, this app does what it says, and allows you to schedule a text message that can be sent at a later time. What a love is that it uses your actual SMS carrier so everything appears where it needs to be. If you like me and want to think of all the things you need to send the next morning, this works great. You do have to remember to Actually send it the next day but you will get a reminder. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is that it does have a few issues around what happens if something goes over or if it sent early.

**Developer response:** Update: the app now offers automatic texting! Check it out :)

### 4/5 — Best I’ve found

*2025-02-01, version 4.10*

This works for me for helping me get my thoughts down for a future text.

### 4/5 — East to use

*2024-11-21, version 4.10*

Great
Only critique
Would love it if it could repeat scheduled texts to groups.

### 4/5 — It works

*2024-10-30, version 4.10*

It works.

### 3/5 — Ok but needs some work

*2024-07-29*

I am using the app and it works for the most part. However if you miss sending a text it stays in the cue and if you try and delete the text using their option of ‘erase’ it does not erase the text. In some cases I have sent the text but it remains in the cue. This can be confusing. They have some bugs in the system so it doesn’t work perfectly. Surprised Apple hasn’t figured this out within the iOS.

**Developer response:** Update: the app now offers automatic texting! Check it out :)

### 3/5 — Somewhat satisfied

*2024-07-15*

I like how I can schedule messages in advance. However, when I schedule and send weekly messages, they seem to replicate themselves so I end up having to delete numerous replicated messages. 
Customer service is fair. When I had a question at the start of using this app, they responded quickly and received a suggestion I made well. For this current replication of messages issue, I messaged them and have not heard back. 
I am starting to look for other options as my year is almost over.

**Developer response:** Update: the app now offers automatic texting! Check it out :)

### 4/5 — Promising app

*2024-07-14*

I enjoy using this app simply because it allows for a smooth planning of messages to be sent in a specific time sequence. I realized that the app cannot pre attach images if that is part of the message draft. It is still very useful as deaigned Great work team!

**Developer response:** Update: the app now offers automatic texting! Check it out :)

### 1/5 — broken???

*2026-08-12*

Update: now in addition to skipping messages when you have multiple notifications, it is now failing to notify me at all. on my iPhone 17 pro, I have daily texts scheduled, and notifications enabled, but it never gives notifications any more. 

Please fix! I’ve spent dozens of hours scheduling texts that aren’t getting sent. 

And here was my feeedback from last year that still was never fixed. 

This app would be great and do exactly what I need except that when you have more than one text scheduled to go out at a time it gives you multiple notifications (as expected) but when you tap one of them it just forgets the other one. It works if you only need to send one text a day but if you have more than one at a time, it becomes a mess and forget your texts. Hope they can fix this bug because I would love to use this app.

**Developer response:** Update: we are aware of the issue and are preparing to release an update shortly! 

Thank you for your feedback. We will look into this - can you clarify if you're not receiving alerts or that after tapping one alert all the other alerts are removed?

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-02-23, version 4.40*

It stopped working

### 1/5 — Don’t pay for it

*2025-09-29*

Definitely not a fan. Doesn’t work properly and customer service is terrible. I emailed them and never heard back

**Developer response:** Thank you for your message. I apologize for the inconvenience with our app and miscommunication regarding the email. We respond to all emails within 24 hours. Our response was likely caught by a spam filter or landed in your junk folder, so give that a look. Alternatively, please add our customer service email to your contacts list and shoot us another email. I hope we can resolve your issue :)

### 1/5 — I still need to check my phone on time so the message can be sent.

*2025-08-09, version 4.20*

What’s the point of me scheduling a text message to be sent out if I still need to go back to my phone and send it manually Once the app notifies me? this is not a scheduling app. This is a reminders app…

### 1/5 — False Advertising

*2025-05-04, version 4.11*

You cannot create a “Group” and have the app send the text messages individually. It’s no different than using the native text messaging app. Should be removed from the Apple Store.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2025-01-22*

The alleged point of this app is that a loss you to schedule messages. Well if you can’t schedule messages to send, how does it work the previous, which gives it all stars says it’s OK that it doesn’t work or one piece of nonsense is that? It’s like buying a shovel and deciding it’s really useful as a coat rack. You can’t shovel well if you use it as a coat rack that’s not why you bought it. Why does Apple allow this on the Apple app site if they know it’s not going to work? really ridiculous.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your message. We'd like to apologize for any misunderstandings. Kyew must get approval due to security precautions set by the system. There is currently no way to 100% automate drafting messages, adding attachments and setting up a sending schedule from your personal number. We try to make a solid 99% experience. We're exploring full automation, so please email us to be included in the beta program, or with further feedback.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t automatically send sms. It asks you to tap to send

*2024-11-24, version 4.10*

Then why do I even need this?

### 1/5 — Oszuści

*2024-05-10, version 4.01*

Oszustwo

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2024-05-10, version 4.01*

Keeps asking me to leave a review

### 1/5 — Awful support never got back. Avoid!

*2024-04-14, version 4.01*

Besides of having no support the app is poor in managing scheduling to text. Not user friendly and with the price does not provide a unique phone number. Very unattractive and basic text for the receiver. Look for other app!

### 5/5 — I do sales!

*2026-05-18*

Awesome app. I really like how it helps rewrite text, but nothing sends unless you actually press send. I’m in sales, so sometimes the client has already replied or another coworker has picked up the lead, and that extra control makes a huge difference. Makes communication faster without losing the human side of it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! Wanted to let you know: the app now offers automatic texting!

### 5/5 — Super good!

*2026-01-26, version 4.40*

Very user friendly 😊

### 5/5 — Easy to use, works as it should

*2025-12-12, version 4.40*

I use this when I know I need to send a text later and don’t want to forget. I also used it to plan a high school reunion.

### 5/5 — App is greatly used

*2025-01-04, version 4.10*

This app is so cool for texting ahead for birthdays and even things you have to send for certain time zones.👍🏻

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-11-04, version 4.10*

Great it does what it’s supposed to do

### 5/5 — I love this app.

*2024-10-03, version 4.04*

Solves an amazing apple deficiency! Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Pretty great app - has really helped me

*2024-08-26*

It’s pretty good app - it’s been a game changer for being able to schedule and send things to relieve anxiety when I have things on my mind. the only thing is sometimes the push notifications don’t go through but most likely that’s user error !

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2024-06-12, version 4.02*

I wake up early. I don’t wanna text people at four in the morning, but I don’t want to forget this app. Let me schedule texts for later.

### 5/5 — Helps me multitask (and not forget)

*2024-04-14*

Simple and effective! Being able to schedule messages to be sent at a later date just works!!

### 5/5 — I like it

*2024-02-11, version 4.0*

But please stop asking for review every time you open the app. It’s annoying
