### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-02-21*

Does not auto respond

### 3/5 — It’s the only thing on Apple that does this, but it’s bad

*2024-05-10*

The app doesn’t send the message when the app is closed.
You also just get 3 messages you can send before you either buy a subscription or buy more messages to send.
I think the dev might aswell restart with this one.

### 1/5 — Auto responder doesn’t work

*2023-11-17*

I only downloaded & subscribed to this app for the auto reply, but it doesn’t work. I keep getting “Error code 30034” when the auto reply tries to respond to an incoming text.
