When performing an A/B test for emails, I cannot choose Recipient’s Local Time. Why?!

I also can’t use Smart Send because with this sample segment, we have under 12,000 to send to.

HI @heatherdc,

Welcome to the Klaviyo Community and thank you for your question!

While I can’t directly answer the question as to why this can’t be done, I thought I would highlight that it is possible to do this inside of a flow. You can switch the wait step out to be based on the local recipient’s time zone like the below:

Hope that helps!

Thanks
David
