Set Up an Instant Response Text on a Phone Number

Attention: Carriers are now blocking all unregistered outbound SMS per industry regulations to combat spam. Registration is mandatory for all providers, not just Grasshopper. Register now to restore or maintain SMS service. Grasshopper cannot expedite carrier reviews.

Set up instant response to send automatic text messages in response to missed calls. The instant response messages have a 160-character maximum.

Before you begin:
  • Users must be admins to set up and use instant response.
  • SMS texting must be enabled as an add-on to use instant response.
About this task: Instant response messages will not be sent for the following reasons:
  • Callers who leave a voicemail.
  • Callers who hang up before selecting an extension
