If you’re a busy person who wants to respond to calls on your iPhone, there are a few things you can do to customize the way your messages look and sound. First, open the Messages app and select the “Respond with Text” option. This will add a text field to the bottom of each call screen, so you can type in a response right away. Second, change the font size and color of your text message fields. You can also choose how loud or soft your messages will be. Third, add some fun fonts and colors to your messages. For example, if you like to use bright colors in your texts, try using fonts that are bolder or brighter than normal. And if you want to add some personality to your texts, try using fonts that are different from the default ones that come with the iPhone.


You can easily ignore or reject calls on your iPhone. However, what if you want to at least send a quick message to acknowledge the call? There are three default text messages you can send as responses to calls on your iPhone.

If none of the default text message responses serve your purpose, you can change them. To customize the “Respond with Text” responses, tap “Settings” on the Home screen on your iPhone.

On the “Settings” screen, tap “Phone”.

Tap “Respond with Text” on the “Phone” settings screen.

On the “Respond with Text” screen, tap on the response you want to replace.

Type your custom response. Your response is stored automatically and you can return to the Home screen directly using the Home button.

NOTE: If you return to the Home screen directly from the “Respond with Text” settings screen, that same screen will display the next time you open “Settings”.

Any responses you customized display in darker text and a round button with an “x” on it displays to the right. If you decide to go back to the default response you replaced with your custom response, tap on the “x” button.

NOTE: You can only choose from three text message responses for calls. You cannot add any more; you can only change the existing responses.
