Overview
- The feature lets users schedule alerts tied to specific messages by long‑pressing a message, choosing “recordarme,” and selecting preset timers from one minute to 24 hours or a custom date and time.
- A bell icon appears on the marked message and, at the scheduled time, a notification arrives that looks like a new message and is labeled “Recordatorio.”
- Once the alert fires, WhatsApp automatically removes the reminder to keep chats uncluttered.
- WABetaInfo reports that reminders are processed entirely on the device and are visible only to the user.
- Access is currently limited to some iOS users on app version 25.25.74, and Meta confirms a phased rollout that will broaden on iOS and reach Android in the coming weeks.
