Frequently asked questions

How are the messages created?

Pick who you are declining (boss, friend, relative, etc.), the situation (drinks, weekend plans, a loan, a blind date), and the tone you want (politely firm, playful, or a clean no). Three ready-to-send messages appear instantly. No sign-up or personal details required.

How do I say no without hurting them?

Three things matter: (1) thank them for the invite or the ask first, (2) keep your reason short instead of over-explaining, and (3) leave the door open for next time. The "politely firm" tone is written around exactly these principles.

How do I turn down a request to lend money?

Money can easily strain a relationship, so it works better to lean on a personal "rule" than on emotion. Saying something like "I have a policy of not lending money" grounds your no in a standard, which stings the other person less.

Can I send the message right away?

Tap the "Copy" button on any message and it goes straight to your clipboard, ready to paste into your messenger or texts.
