Must one file for an extension BEFORE April 15th or May one file for an extension ON April 15th?

Last piece of info will be available to us ON April 15th.  If last minute filing gets messy, will it be too late to get an extension?

The requirement for a 2018 extension request for US residents is that the Form 4868 must be filed on or before April 15, 2019
