How do Templates work?

Or, simply create your own custom Templates with your company logo and business information included. To get started:

(Optional) Add Your Logo + Business Info

Once Templates are set up, just tap    in the Texting Toolbar to populate and send your prewritten message—along with any logos or additional information you’ve included.
