⚡Canned Responses
Use Whautomate's Canned Response functionality to speed up your customer service.
Pre-designed messages, also known as Canned Responses, are templates readily available for you and your team to use without the hassle of typing the same message repeatedly. If you frequently use specific messages, save them as canned responses for swift access whenever needed.
