Based on a sample of user reactions on Twitter, the send later button should change life in the office for many Outlook for web users. For example, one user responds: Another excited user adds: Yet, this one quips, rather casually: Gmail has had this feature for a while now. Of course, some users are wondering whether the send later button is coming to Outlook for desktop anytime soon. Well, it’s been there since 1997! That’s not surprising, though, since Microsoft tends to add new features to its different versions of Outlook separately. We already wrote about the new text prediction feature for Outlook.com and Outlook on the web, for example. Similarly, we expect Outlook for Windows to start supporting cross-device email signature syncing this month. Are you excited about the new send later button in Outlook for web?
