S7 edge automatically responds with an SMS to unanswered calls - when no such app is installed or be

[Yubbys 1]

Noticed my s7 edge recently started sending out auto quick responses to missed calls on its own. I have no 3rd party app installed nor have activated this feature from the phone. I have already deleted all quick response messages. Any advise? Thanks.

Have you checked that this is not a carrier service?

I haven't checked if this was a carrier service but if it was, I'd be really surprised! Thanks.

If you're service is at&t, they have a free utility called "at&t Call Protect". It's basically their rebranded version of Hiya. Hiya sends out auto quick responses to unknown missed calls telling them to identify themselves (or something like that). Is this maybe the source of your issue?
