Ever been in indisposed (meeting, class, work) and have people relentlessly text you? Want to tell them all your busy? For those of you that have ever faced this problem there may be a solution. TextSecretary allows you to globally set yourself unavailable by auto-replying to any text messages you receive in that period. Simply enter a custom message, which will automatically be sent to anyone that texts you during this period, letting them know that you’re busy and you’ll get back to them or whatever it is you’d like them to know. Your current status can be displayed in your notification tray at any time while the app is active, and you’re also offered the option to automatically silence or set your phone to vibrate upon activating your away status. On top of that there’s a widget built in allowing convenient on the fly status changes, to either “Away” or “Available”.
