# Customizable text message

You can customize text messages in PingFederate for a unique experience.

If you have configured your self-service password reset and, optionally, your self-service account unlock to use the text message option, you can customize and localize the text message for a unique experience. The default message is stored as a property in the `<pf_install>/pingfederate/server/default/conf/language-packs/pingfederate-sms-messages.properties` file.
