Not sure what to say? Paste their message, pick a style, and Better Reply writes three replies you can send. Answer texts, emails and chats in seconds, or rewrite what you've typed so it sounds right.

HOW IT WORKS
• Paste a message or email, or add a screenshot of the chat
• Pick a style, like Be kind, Say no politely or Formal email

60 REPLY STYLES

YOUR OWN TEMPLATES
Describe how you want to sound and Better Reply writes the template for you, with a sample reply to try. Or write it yourself. Every template is checked for safety before it's saved.

REPLY FROM ANY APP
• Keyboard: turn on the Better Reply keyboard and use Reply to copied or Rewrite mine in your chat, email and work apps
• Share: share a message or a screenshot from any app and pick a reply
• Reply to Copied: copy a message, then open it from Siri, Spotlight, the Action button or Control Center

The keyboard always types like a normal keyboard. Full Access is only needed for replies and rewrites, and text is only sent when you tap one of them. Nothing is sent to the AI service until you agree.
