Any way to auto reply to texts on iPhone while I'm busy?

I'm away on site all day and can't answer messages. Android had an auto reply option. Looked through iPhone settings and only found the driving one. Is there something that works the rest of the time?

Yes, but it lives in the Driving focus. Settings > Focus > Driving > Auto-Reply, pick who gets it and write your own message. You can turn Driving on by hand from Control Center whenever you're busy, it doesn't have to be in a car. The other focus modes don't have auto-reply, which catches people out.
