Auto Messages
Auto Messages are the engine of Apptoto — SMS, email, and call templates that send automatically based on appointment timing rules.
Auto Messages are Apptoto’s automated message sequences. You manage them in Messaging > Appointment Auto Messages. Apptoto supports SMS, voice call, and email — all available for reminders, booking confirmations, and follow-ups.

| Booking | After the appointment is added to your calendar | Accept or Decline |
| Followup | After the appointment end time | None (customizable) |
