# Auto-responder updates

We've updated the "End Chat and Opt-Out Keywords message" [auto responder](https://guides.clickatell.com/chat-desk/chat-desk-dashboard/settings/auto-responders#end-chat-and-opt-out-keywords-message) as follows:

* The default message was updated to: *“You can end this chat at any time during your conversation with our agents by replying with //end. To opt out of this service, reply with //stop.”*
* Previously, users could edit the text of this auto responder but were not allowed to change the keywords **//end** or **//stop**. With this release, we now allow users to remove/edit the hardcoded keywords.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important note:** Although the keywords can be removed/edited, this is a text update only, and does not change the actual keywords and their associated functionality. If a user replaces the keywords with something else, it will not affect functionality.
{% endhint %}
