Is there a way to schedule an answer?

Question

Sometimes is better to have an answer scheduled to be sent in a specific time & day.I know I could just snooze the conversation to reply it latter, but if I could answer now and schedule to be sent in another time this would be great...

@user682​Roy's answer is correct for the built-in features but have a look at Bump from the Userfeed team as he suggested, it does exactly what you need and I've found it extremely useful especially as it can do multiple follow ups handsfree -- https://bump.userfeed.io
