Not Disturb While Driving's auto-reply:
- Open Settings.
Share this tip with a friend:
- Tap Do Not Disturb.
- Under Phone, tap Allow Calls From and select No One (or
Favorites if you still want people you've added to Favorites in the
Contacts app to be able to reach you via phone when Do Not Disturb While
Driving is enabled). Note that calls are always sent to your voicemail
when Do Not Disturb is on, so callers will not receive an auto-reply text.
- Under Do Not Disturb While Driving, tap Activate and
select Manually.
- Tap Auto-Reply To and select which group you want to
auto-reply to: Recents, Favorites, or All Contacts.
- Tap Auto-Reply to customize your automatic message.
You can add

feature whenever you want with just a swipe and a tap.
To do this:
- Open Settings and tap Control Center.
- Tap Customize Controls.
- Tap the green plus next to Do Not Disturb While
Driving to move it to the Include section.
- Now when you open Control Center, tap the Do Not
Disturb While Driving button to enable the auto-reply texts.
Now you can
enjoy your time undisturbed, while anyone who tries to text you will receive
your auto-reply until you disable the feature.
