Quick Chat, sometimes referred to as Quickchat by Innersloth, is a feature in the text chat in Among Us that allows users to send messages based on predetermined message templates. It was added in version 2021.2.21 and underwent a major UI update in version 2023.7.11.
Overview
The first time that the player opens Among Us, they will be asked to log in with an online account. If the age they entered is under 13 years, or the player chooses to use a local/guest account, then the player will be restricted to the Quick Chat system only unless they get an adult's consent.
As of July 2023, there are 5 Quick Chat categories in the lobby and 5 in a meeting

Trivia
- While contemplating the release of console ports of Among Us, Innersloth had trouble with player communication being too slow for regular gameplay.
- However, the developers have hinted at Quick Chat being the solution to this problem.
- There was a visual bug in which when a player hovers or clicks or taps over a Quick Chat option, a console controller "A" button will show (Old Quick Chat).
- Quick Chat did not work well in the lobby prior to version 2023.7.11, as the options still show things about accusing or game-related statements, even though the game has not started.
- Players cannot combine phrases into their own sentence using Quick Chat. If they attempt this, the previous phrase is deleted from the typing bar when selecting the next phrase.
- Prior to version 2021.3.5, all players under 19 years old would be limited to using only Quick Chat.
