Standard tier notification hubs support a feature that enables you to schedule notifications up to seven days in the future. ## Schedule your notifications When sending a notification, simply use the [`ScheduledNotification` class](/dotnet/api/microsoft.azure.notificationhubs.schedulednotification#microsoft_azure_notificationhubs_schedulednotification) in the Notification Hubs SDK as shown in the following example: ```csharp Notification notification = new AppleNotification("{\"aps\":{\"alert\":\"Happy birthday!\"}}"); var scheduled = await hub.ScheduleNotificationAsync(notification, new DateTime(2014, 7, 19, 0, 0, 0)); ``` ## Cancel scheduled notifications Also, you can cancel a previously scheduled notification using its notificationId: ```csharp await hub.CancelNotificationAsync(scheduled.ScheduledNotificationId); ``` There are no limits on the number of scheduled notifications you can send. ## Next steps See the following tutorials: - [Push notifications to all registered devices](notification-hubs-windows-store-dotnet-get-started-wns-push-notification.md) - [Push notifications to specific devices](notification-hubs-windows-notification-dotnet-push-xplat-segmented-wns.md) - [Push localized notifications](notification-hubs-windows-store-dotnet-xplat-localized-wns-push-notification.md) - [Push notifications to specific users](notification-hubs-aspnet-backend-windows-dotnet-wns-notification.md) - [Push location-based notifications](notification-hubs-push-bing-spatial-data-geofencing-notification.md)
