Absolutely. So many other apps like Slack have this feature as an option, not mandatory to use it.
On a Friday I finished a project after 5pm - I did not want to send the comment at that time for several reasons. I wanted to prepare the comment/response to send on Monday morning but couldn’t.
I wrote the comment anyway without sending and later got an email asking if I forgot to finish my comment… On Saturday. Talk about frustrating. 
Yes! PLEASE allow scheduling of comments like email and Slack do now. The countless reasons we need this are listed by others above. 
Hey!
How many votes this should meet to get things going? I will influence other users to vote because we [Asana users] really need it 
The number of votes isn’t enough, but it is definitely taken into consideration!
I would also like a scheduling feature to make Asana effective for replacing email. I can schedule emails on Outlook at least.
This would really be a game changer for me and our team. We have a marketing team of around 15 people in multiple timezones with different working hours and days.
Our biggest painpoint with Asana is comments and tasks ‘falling through the cracks’ or getting missed if they’re sent early morning or in late evening.
This often means we are taking workflows out of Asana and into Slack or an email chain to keep everything visible and trackable within each stakeholders working hours.
This feature would be a gamechanger as it would also free-up so much time during the workday that right now are being occupied by ‘back and fourthing’. I am often briefing, doing approvals at night on in early mornings and this would mean I could have those comms sent out as soon as our team are online and ready to work.
Asana Group PM Lead here! I appreciate the passion and detail you all have included in your comments. While this is not yet considered, we’re investing in a path towards a feature like this. In our current half, the team that owns this surface area is focused on implementing another long running customer request: threaded comments.
We’re listening - even if our product team isn’t commenting regularly!
This is a great feature to consider to help teams who are looking into integrate further in Asana and reduce reliance on Slack + Email. This would also allow people to work into the future and unlock individual future capacity. Some people may want to schedule send AND complete a task at a specific time, especially if they are working late/early hours to not trigger a notification for their co-worker and/or to stay on pace while they’re OOO.
@Heather_Myers_Barker the use case specific examples you gave are exactly what makes this community the most effective in informing our roadmap, so I appreciate you sharing! As someone who manages across 3 time zones and 2 continents, your examples resonate.
@Garrett_Knoll I’d love to debate this with you next time we talk.
Trying to work “around” those issues is simply creating more work for everyone. The simplest solution being: “don’t have push notifications on your phone, and don’t read emails after hours”…
I am ready to have my mind changed…
I have a few questions about this product feedback.
If you post your comment a few hours after creating it, won’t someone else comment in the meantime, causing your post to stray from the topic?
If you want to comment a few hours later, wouldn’t it be effective to create a follow-up task for the original task and leave a note there? Wouldn’t this be achieved by referring to the follow-up task later and commenting on the original task?
It seems possible to achieve the same thing as 2 by using the “Draft Comment” widget on the home page. If you create a comment but don’t post it, it will appear in “Draft Comment,” so you won’t forget what you said.
+100000! Please do this. I’m not as worried about the notifications (because you can turn them off), but I often get things done way ahead of schedule, but I don’t necessarily want my client to KNOW that so they can justify paying me less. 
Hi, I desperately need the ability to schedule comments in Asana.
I often work very early in the morning. Our organization is not global, so posting a comment at 4:00am can unnecessarily trigger notifications or create confusion. To avoid that, I’ll draft comments ahead of time and intentionally wait to post them during business hours.
The problem is: once the day starts, I’m pulled into meetings and real-time work, and I sometimes forget to go back and post those comments at the planned time (or not exactly at 9:00am when I intended). This creates gaps in communication that aren’t about discipline—they’re about the reality of how work flows.
Being able to schedule a comment would:
Preserve thoughtful, intentional communication
Prevent off-hours notifications
Reduce dropped context and follow-ups
Better support flexible work schedules without penalizing early or late work
This would be a major quality-of-life improvement for people who plan carefully, work asynchronously, and manage cross-team communication at scale.
Bumping this topic again as we’ve been waiting for this feature for years. Because of async work, we need to be able to delay a message/communication within tasks in Asana. This is a standard feature in every communication application, ex. Slack, Outlook, Gmail etc
First, thank you all for your constructive, detailed, and use case based comments! While I know it can be frustrating we haven’t delivered on a particular feature for you all, we’re operating within constraints. So while everyone on our end genuinely wants to address every ask, your comments really are informing our roadmap and we appreciate it. We’re currently focused on threaded comments, but I will continue to represent this in roadmap conversations!
