A quick response is a short SMS that you can send when rejecting a call on your Android smartphone, and customizing them can save you time. The default quick responses offered by Android let people know you can't answer right now and how to contact you next. You can customize these quick decline messages as you like, to make them more useful for you. This tutorial illustrates how to use, view, and edit the quick response text messages available in Android:

How to change the default quick responses in Android
While sending a quick response to someone when you can't answer their call is useful, the default quick responses on Android are quite generic. That is why we'd rather create our own. To customize the quick decline messages, first open the Phone app by tapping its icon on the Home screen or on the All Apps screen.
Access the Phone app
In the Phone app, tap the three dots button from the upper-right corner of the screen.
Tap the button for more options
This reveals a menu with a couple of options. Tap on Settings.
Access the Settings of the Phone app
In the list of settings, tap Quick responses.
Access Quick responses
On the "Edit quick responses" screen, you should see the four default quick response text message samples available in Android.
You can customize any of them by tapping on them.
Tap on an entry to edit it
When you tap on a quick response, you can edit it, changing its text to anything you wish. Insert a text that comes in handy more than once. Maybe someone keeps calling you, but you don't want to hear it and only have one thing to say. When you are done customizing a message, tap OK.
Enter your new message and press OK
Your message should now be displayed in the list, replacing the one you chose to edit. When you are done customizing your quick responses as needed, close the Phone app.
Your message replaces one of the predefined samples
