LinkedIn releases a feature that had been in testing for several months. The social network for professional contacts finally introduces the ability to schedule publications. This is a function that has been tested these months, some users could use it, but it is now being launched for everyone.
LinkedIn now lets you schedule messages
The idea is that you can publish something at the desired time, even if you have written it hours before. A feature with which you could make your posts reach more people.

New feature
When you want to write a new post on LinkedIn, the window to do so will remain unchanged. Only that in the bottom right corner of the screen, next to the publish button, a button with the icon of a clock is now introduced. This is the button with which this new feature is introduced on the platform. Users will only have to click on it to start making use of it in their accounts.
The function allows us to schedule this publication or message when we want. We will be able to choose both the specific date on which to upload it, as well as the time. Thus it will be published at those times that we consider best if it is an announcement that can be very useful, for example.
Until now, if you wanted to schedule publications on the platform, you had to use third-party applications. This new feature on LinkedIn changes this so that the whole process can be done on the website itself. This is more convenient for all users. The feature is rolling out now and these days it should be available to everyone who uses it.
