title: Want to develop an app that can automatically respond to received sms
body: <p>want to develop an app that can automatically respond to a received text, include my location using gps/google maps in the returned message, and read out the received message using text to speech.</p>
  
  <p>My first concern (what this question relates too!) is figuring out howto automatically reply to sms messages received.  I have built a basic GUI and menu option.  There is an EditText field that uses shared_preferences to remember the string so far. </p>
  
  <p>How do I go about adding this string to an sms message, and making the messege send to whomever just texted me?  I have a decent understanding of java but I havn't been about to find any clear examples and an a bit confused.
  Any help would be great!
  Thanks</p>
  
  <p>(Basically a java oracle version of the app inventor application "NoTextWhileDriving2")</p>
