# Saved replies **(FREE)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/352956) in GitLab 14.9 [with a flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `saved_replies`. Disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
With saved replies, create and reuse text for any text area in:
|
|
|
|
- Merge requests, including diffs.
|
|
- Issues, including design management comments.
|
|
- Epics.
|
|
- Work items.
|
|
|
|
Saved replies can be small, like approving a merge request and unassigning yourself from it,
|
|
or large, like chunks of boilerplate text you use frequently:
