QuickReplies - Conversation not started when using quick replies.

Question

Hi. This is on both Android (1.16.0) and iOS (18.7.2). When I start a conversation with the AI chatbot and use one of our predefined quick replies I need to wait until the textfield appears and then send a new text message or send a GIF before the AI reacts to the first quick replie I sent. This feels like a bug in the implementation and of course the chat should start right away if the user uses the quick replie feature,

Hey ​@Curwer,It sounds like you might be referring to reply buttons in a Workflow? If so, Fin won’t kick in until the user asks a question by typing in the Messenger. If you want a pre-set answer to send out to a user based on the button they select, you can build that directly into your workflow like so:Hope that helps!
