On January 1st, Android users noticed a problem with the Google Messages app. The program was not functioning correctly and was not displaying the date of January 1st, 2024, and subsequent days. While standard message sending was working fine, the issue occurred when attempting to schedule SMS messages for the future.
Some users tried to schedule messages for January 1st or later, but the app did not allow them to select any date after December 31st, 2023. Manually entering the date was also impossible, resulting in an error message stating “invalid date”.
For some individuals, this error was problematic as it prevented them from scheduling New Year’s greetings to family and friends at midnight. The only way to schedule a message was to use predefined commands, such as “tomorrow at 8 AM”.
Fortunately, the situation has been resolved, and the app is now working without any issues. Users can now schedule message deliveries for any day in 2024 and beyond.
