  2. (Optional) Turn on after-hours messages for job confirmation and reminders. These messages should be in addition to the SMS bot

  3. Set the time when your auto-reply will activate

    1. For example, the auto-reply is set to activate from 5 PM to 8 AM. Any text received from customers during this time will receive the auto-reply message

    2. All Day ON: Select the day(s) where you want the auto-reply to be active all day. It will automatically reply to any messages received on that day.

  4. Set the time buffer

    1. If the customer sends multiple messages within the designated time buffer, they will only receive one auto-reply message

  5. Update or customize the content of your SMS auto-reply. You also have the option to preview your message
