Hi HN! I created Later to solve a problem I've had every day since joining a remote team: I want to keep our conversations in Slack, but don't want to intrude on my coworkers after hours when they're in different time zones.

Later has a few tricks that I continue to enjoy daily:

- Later does the time zone math for you, automatically determining when 9:00 AM is in your recipient's time zone - Later watches for when your recipient comes online and delivers your message early if they go green before 9:00 AM (but you can disable early delivery for a message, too) - Messages are delivered as if you sent them (as opposed to Slack's built-in /remind, which sends messages out of context from Slackbot) - Later works in DMs and group DMs as well as public and private channels - handy for making morning announcements to a distributed team

After months of use with my team, I'm excited to launch Later for anyone to try. I'd love to answer your questions
