Watomatic automatically replies to all your WhatsApp and Facebook messages. This is especially useful if you are planning to migrate away from WhatsApp but can also be used as a simple vacation responder.

Features:

WhatsApp's recent privacy policy changes have triggered a huge migration to more privacy friendly apps like Signal and others. But most of us find it difficult to delete WhatsApp because everyone else uses it. Watomatic tries to make your migration easier by letting your friends automatically know that you are moved to another app. Just set an auto reply message something like “I am not using WhatsApp anymore. Please use Signal…” and let it do the work for you.

Troubleshoot:

Watomatic relies on WhatsApp notifications for auto reply to work. Most users usually have notifications enabled so should work straight out of the box but otherwise please make sure WhatsApp notifications are enabled and WhatsApp fingerprint lock is disabled for this app to work. This app is not associated with any company including WhatsApp, Facebook, Signal, Telegram.

This uses non standard Android APIs to achieve this so it is not guaranteed to work on all devices.

WhatsNew:

* Upgrade to make it work with Android SDK 34
* Bug fixes and performance improvements

Hint: This app is available in both, F-Droid Main and IzzyOnDroid repos. For details on this, please see here.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
