Create Schedules by Chat

Instead of filling in the editor yourself, you can ask ACS Assistant to create schedules for you.

Two Ways To Ask​

WayExample
Describe one call"Remind me to call Mum at 8pm next Thursday."
Paste a listPaste several calls at once — the assistant creates the valid ones and tells you how many.

What The Assistant Needs​

To create a call, the assistant needs two things:

  • Who to call — a phone number, or a contact name it can look up
  • When to call — a date and time

If anything required is missing, it asks you once before creating the schedule.

Finding A Contact By Name​

When you use a name ("call Alex"), the assistant searches your contacts:

  • One match → it uses that number.
  • Several matches → it asks which one you mean.
  • No match → it asks you for the number.

Relative times like "tomorrow at 3pm" or "next Monday" are worked out from your device's date, time, and time zone.

Created Calls Start Paused​

Important

Schedules the assistant creates are added to your list switched off. Nothing dials until you turn each one on.

To activate a new schedule, tap the Play button on its card. The chat also shows a Go to schedule list button to take you straight there. See Managing Schedules for how activating works.

Pasting A Long List​

You can paste many calls in one message. A few things to know:

  • The assistant creates the valid entries and reports how many were created and skipped.
  • Rows missing a phone number or time are skipped and listed, so nothing fails silently.
  • There's a limit on how many calls one message can create. If you go over, the extras are reported rather than dropped quietly.

Credits​

Creating or changing a schedule uses 2 credits (a normal chat message uses 1). See AI Credits.
