# Atomatic - Auto reply for Messaging apps so you can stop using it
Atomatic sends an automated reply to everyone contacting you on Messaging apps. This is especially useful if you are planning to migrate away from messaging apps but can also be used as a vacation responder.

### Features:
- Auto reply to every message on supported messaging apps
- Set your own auto reply message
- Auto reply to group chats
- Respects your privacy
- No analytics or tracking
- Free and open source
Example:
WhatsApp's recent privacy policy changes have triggered a huge migration to more privacy friendly apps like Signal and others. But most of us find it difficult to delete WhatsApp because everyone else uses it. Atomatic tries to make your migration easier by letting your friends automatically know that you are moved to another app. Just set an auto reply message something like “I am not using WhatsApp anymore. Please use Signal…” and let it do the work for you.
This app is not associated with any company including WhatsApp, Facebook or Signal.

### Troubleshooting
- Auto reply does not work even after Atomatic is enabled
Atomatic relies on notifications for auto reply to work. Most users usually have notifications enabled so should work straight out of the box but otherwise please make sure notifications are enabled and app-specific fingerprint lock is disabled for Atomatic to work.
### FAQ
- Why not use WhatsApp business account for auto replies?
You cannot use business account without accepting the new privacy policy that everyone is trying to avoid.
- Will this be available for iOS in the future
This app relies on Android specific notification quick replies feature to function. This may not be possible on iOS.
