How it works

Three screens. That's the whole tour.

CalmMessage rewrites emotionally charged messages into calmer, clearer ones, right where you already type. Here's what you'll see the first time you use it.

Nothing is saved. Nothing is remembered.
CalmMessage in two places
01 — Two surfaces

CalmMessage lives in two places.

In the app

When you need to think.

Write it out, rewrite it, sit with it, copy it. Nothing sends from here. This is the room where you draft the message you don't want to get wrong.

In Messages

When you're already typing.

Open a conversation, tap the + button next to the text field, and choose CalmMessage. It rewrites what you've already typed, right there in the thread. You still choose whether to send.

The full flow, start to finish: tap the + next to the text field, choose CalmMessage, paste or type what you want to say, tap Steady this to generate the rewrite, read it, and tap Use this to drop it into your reply.

1

Open the extension

Tap the + next to the text field in any conversation and choose CalmMessage.

2

Write your message

Paste in what you've already typed, or draft it fresh right there.

3

Tap Steady this

CalmMessage reads the message, picks an approach, and generates the rewrite.

4

Tap Use this

The rewrite drops into your message field. Send it the way you normally would.

The Rewrite Screen

1. Mode

The approach CalmMessage chose after reading your message. De-escalate cools an accusation. Set Boundary firms up a hedged or over-apologetic ask. Shorten trims a long, repetitive message down to the point.

2. The rewrite

Your message, rewritten. Same intent, calmer delivery. Read this before anything else on the screen.

3. Use this

Drops the rewrite into your message field. One tap, then send the way you normally would.

4. Edit rewrite / Send original

Adjust a word or two before it goes out, or skip the rewrite entirely. Nothing here is forced on you.

5. Try a different approach

Tap another mode to rewrite the same message a different way. Set Boundary firms up a hedged ask. Shorten trims a long one.

6. Flagged in original

The exact phrases that prompted the rewrite. These are notes, not corrections. Over time they show you your own patterns.

7. Original

Your message exactly as you wrote it, kept on screen so you can compare the two.
