Requirements: Android 2.2+

Overview: Auto Respond to text messages when enabled

Features:

• Auto Respond to text messages when enabled

o Option to auto respond to received voice calls

o Option to auto enable when in dock or car dock

o Option to silence ringer while enabled

• Doesn’t respond to texts from Facebook or Twitter

o Ability for user to add to "Do not respond" list

• Personalized response message

• Ability to create a list of frequently used messages

o Long-press these messages to edit/delete the message

• Only sends one response per contact, per session to avoid spamming contacts

o A session is started when "Auto Respond" is enabled, and ended when it is disabled

• Permanent Notification when Auto Respond is active

o Notification also shows how many responses were sent this session

Ideas for future versions:

• Schedule for responses (useful during a daily/weekly meeting)

• Timer to automatically turn off auto respond after certain time period, or at specific time (useful while watching a movie)

• Jelly Bean style notifications (I have some ideas for things to put in the pull-down)

• Ability to change the default message

• Widgets to easily enable auto respond with a specific preset message

• Backup and restore of settings and messages

• Tabbed Settings screen

Permissions Explained:

• Most of the SMS permissions are obvious: they're needed to check for received text messages and send a response

• READ SMS OR MMS: Needed to write the sent message to your messaging app

• READ CONTACT DATA: Used to check to see if the number being replied to is in your contact list

• READ_PHONE_STATE: Used to respond to received phone calls

As I add new features they may require additional permissions, and they will all be explained here.
