Scheduled messages — user guide

Write a message, pick a recipient and a delivery date: what MYWIE actually does, and what Famille unlocks.

Updated: 20 August 2026

1. What scheduled messages are for

You write a text for someone, with their email and a delivery date. MYWIE keeps the message and makes it available to the recipient on that date (delivery link).

“Posthumous messages” is the same tool. Delivery follows the date you set, not an automatic death record.

  • Title, recipient name, email, body, delivery date.
  • Status in your list (created, notified, released, depending on database columns).
  • Recipient access via a unique link, without a required MYWIE account.

This is not a legal will. For estate wishes, a notary remains the path. MYWIE’s testament complement is a separate feature.

2. Create, reread, delete

The tool opens from Scheduled messages when signed in. A Zero-Knowledge banner may ask you to sign in again if reading keys are missing.

  • Recipient email is required and must be valid (unless a Zero-Knowledge blob).
  • Delivery date is stored when the column exists.
  • You can delete a message while it is still in your list.

Do not promise sending “on the day of death”: the current trigger is the delivery date you enter.

3. Required plan

Scheduled messages are not included in Essentiel.

  • Famille and Héritage: feature open.
  • Essentiel: upgrade banner if you try to create a message.

Current details are on the Pricing page.

4. Privacy

Content is encrypted (app vault / Zero-Knowledge depending on the account). A key fragment may travel with the delivery token so the recipient can read the text.

  • Hosting in France.
  • MYWIE does not use these messages for advertising.
  • If encrypted text no longer displays: sign out and sign in with your password.

Treat the delivery link like a secret.

Go further

This guide covers scheduled (often called posthumous) messages. The digital testament is a separate vault.

One recipient, one date, one text

The message stays with you until the chosen date. It is not a notarised act.
