Short answer
Yes. TikTask lets you schedule SMS with Google Messages on Android. Choose Send SMS, write the message, add recipients, set the time, and save.
Google Messages is the main SMS lane for TikTask. It is a good fit when you want a clear Send SMS workflow with manual numbers, contacts, Recipient Lists, or CSV/XLSX import.
⚠️
Before you start
Open System Monitor first and complete the recommended checks for your phone. Make sure Google Messages is available and ready on the device before you depend on scheduled SMS sends.

What this workflow supports
- Plain SMS text messages
- Manual numbers and saved contacts
- Recipient Lists for repeat workflows
- CSV/XLSX import for larger one-to-one SMS workflows
- One-time and recurring schedules
Important notes
- SMS delivery depends on mobile network coverage and carrier behavior at send time.
- Message splitting and carrier rules are handled by Google Messages and your carrier, not by TikTask.
