# Reply Buttons

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is only supported for WhatsApp for the following WA API providers: 360Dialog, Meta, and GupShup 
{% endhint %}

Using reply buttons makes it easy for the user to reply to a question by giving a rich interface of buttons. Users can create a maximum of **3** buttons. If more are needed, it is recommended to use the [List](/bot-builder/action-block/list.md) or [Options](/bot-builder/action-block/options.md) action block.
