Switching from Blueticks to Kaption
If you use Blueticks to schedule follow-ups and set reminders for yourself, Kaption does the same in WhatsApp Web and the desktop app, and adds voice-note transcripts, summaries, translation and an AI assistant connection, for one flat price per person.
Can I schedule a WhatsApp message from my computer?
WhatsApp has no schedule button; Kaption adds one to WhatsApp Web and the Kaption desktop app for one-to-one chats. Open the chat, write the message, pick the date and time and confirm; the computer must be on and WhatsApp connected when it is due.
Pro (US$11.99 a month): five scheduled messages and reminders a week. Business (US$19.99 a month): unlimited. Every account can schedule in its first 60 days.

Why do people look for a Blueticks alternative?
From Chrome Web Store reviews, read on Nov 3, 2026. Each one links to the reviews page.
Scheduled messages didn’t send once the browser was closed.
“I scheduled and closed my browser it doesn't work you'll need to keep it open for it to work”
— a Chrome Web Store review, Aug 26, 2026, 1★Paying for Basic still meant keeping the PC on for messages to go out.
“A system that requires the PC to be turned on to send saved messages is absolutely useless.”
— a Chrome Web Store review, Jan 29, 2026, 1★The paid always-on mode disconnected about once a week, so messages were missed.
“It will randomly (almost weekly) disconnect without any warning.”
— a Chrome Web Store review, Oct 4, 2025, 2★A paid plan wasn’t activated, and the reviewer couldn’t reach a person in support.
“I paid for a plan, but it is still not active”
— a Chrome Web Store review, Jan 15, 2026, 1★Scheduled sending broke after an update.
“after update new versoin, cant send any msg with schedule send.”

Who should switch, and who shouldn’t
Kaption fits people who schedule one-to-one messages and follow-ups: freelancers, sales reps, consultants, clinics. It does not send campaigns or bulk messages, and its terms forbid unsolicited messaging. If you rely on Blueticks for broadcasts to lists, stay with a tool built for that.
How to switch
- 01
List what is scheduled
In Blueticks, note the messages and reminders that are still pending, including repeating ones. They don’t move over on their own.
- 02
Install Kaption
Add Kaption to Chrome or Edge, or download the desktop app for Mac or Windows, and open WhatsApp Web.
- 03
Recreate scheduled messages
Open each chat, write the message, pick the date and time, and set it to repeat if needed. Then cancel the copy in Blueticks so it isn’t sent twice.
- 04
Move reminders
Add reminders on the messages you need to follow up. Type “tomorrow at 9am”, or repeat daily, weekly or monthly. A reminder sends nothing; it nudges you.
- 05
Connect your AI assistant (optional)
Add https://mcp.kaptionai.com/mcp to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. The assistant can search chats, summarize them, set reminders and schedule a message after you confirm the text and time.
