Hi There,
I tried following your directions for sending a delayed Handcent message on my LG5 Android. When I tap to compose a new message there isn’t an option for “schedule task”. I am not sure why this is.
I do not have 3 bars on the upper left hand corner. I only have 3 dots on the upper right hand corner.
Not sure what else to do.. Would appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks!
Victoria
