Hello is there a command or app for slack that lets me schedule a message to be sent to a channel at a given time?
I don't want to /remind someone, but to send a direct message or chat message.
e.g. group is busy but needs to look at a problem in a month from now.

You can use this app to easily send scheduled and self-destruct messages in Slack. https://timy.website

@EdwardNedHarvey Hi! You should use something like this. /send test message in 5m – Thusitha – 2018-11-28T11:50:21.753
Turns out, the problem is: you need to install timy (in slack, channel settings > add an app), but the search for "timy" yields no results. Instead, on the page you referenced (http://timy.thusitha.site) click on "add to slack," and you need to authorize the app before using it.

Saw this project that will send a message at a given time. Sounds like what your looking for functionally. It runs outside of slack though

You can schedule slack messages using this - https://slackscheduler.com It is an app that need's to be added to your workspace (same as giphy etc), but once it's added you can schedule messages using the /schedule command.
