Ability to attach images within a scheduled message

Maybe i missed the memo or have not discovered the feature but I am not able to attach images to scheduled messages. I am aware of how to include shortcode but there is no attach image option to go along with the short code.

 

In 2021 this topic was mentioned and since then AirBnB has done some good things with scheduled messages but I think this is an obvious miss.  https://community.withairbnb.com/t5/Advice-on-your-space/Add-photo-to-Scheduled-Message/td-p/1521292

 

Can we get some momentum back again on this?

Hosts need the ability to attach an image to a scheduled message. It wastes our time having to follow-up a scheduled message to send a photo of the intersection or other supporting images that are not part of the public listing. For example, I would rather not show the exact intersection of my house in the public listing photos. However, that photo along with the Google Pin helps people find the house.

 

There are several other examples that people can reply here with why this feature is a must have.

 

I thought scheduled messages was supposed to save us time? Why not get back to basics and enable hosts to save time with this feature.: https://youtu.be/u90Xd3elAls?si=O3ZIwCF3IO6b4qQv  . This will definitely be a big change in the scheduled messages form but... its been 3 years.

Thanks to @Patricia2526 , just found out you CAN add photos to a scheduled message, but only in the App, not on a computer. No idea how long that capability has been there, but I just tested it in the App and it works! Thanks again @Patricia2526👏

 

I usually only use a desktop computer and never knew Airbnb had added this feature? Who knows when, as we weren't notified. Here is what it looks like in the App. Go to

This feature is not yet functioning on the desktop - it's greyed-out
