I had a feature on one of my older Galaxy phones (I believe it was the Galaxy S6) which allowed me to set all my texts to send after a delay. I could set the timer on this delay, and I had mine for 5 seconds. I could type a message to any contact, press "send", see my message appear in grey, and if needed, cancel it before it actually sent, so long as it was within the 5 seconds. This was automatic for all texts once set in my messengers settings.

This feature was not available on the S7 or S8. Can I get this feature on my S8 without downloading a third-party app? Or if needed, what app is best?
I realise there is a 'Schedule Message" feature, but that is completely different to what I am after here.
 
Welcome to the forums. I'm not a big SMS user, but which app are you using? There is a difference between Messages and Messages+, maybe the + version has the delay.
 
You can schedule messages in the stock messaging app. Create a message and then tap the hamburger menu in the upper right corner and select schedule message.

Edit: Sorry. Didn't read your whole message. My bad.
