Are text messages and phone calls made overnight?

We Adore Him takes great care to send text messages and make phone calls during Daytime Hours, which we define as 8:00 AM–9:00 PM.

Please note: Email notifications do not follow this rule. They are sent immediately.

The following scenarios are worth mentioning in this regard.

Commitment Reminders

Commitment reminders are sent during daytime and overnight hours, depending on how each commitment is configured. For example, an adorer can configure a 2:00 AM adoration commitment with a 1:00 AM phone call reminder.

However, the default reminder notification for new commitments falls within daytime hours.

Substitute Finder

The Substitute Finder takes a break during overnight hours and sends queued substitute invitations the following morning.

This includes notifying adorers that a substitute was found or is no longer needed, even if the substitute request was claimed or canceled in the middle of the night.

Bulk Messages

Administrators can send bulk messages to adorers anytime, even outside of daytime hours.

However, we caution administrators from inadvertently sending a non-urgent message in the middle of the night. Thus, a prompt is displayed to confirm that you intend to send the message. Be careful; you might wake somebody up! 😴

No-Show Hours

Administrators and captains can receive overnight notifications for no-show hours.
