Reply or reach out, in any app, in the right tone. Some messages are easy. Others you read five times and still don't know what to send. parry helps you find the right words, whether you're answering a message or working out how to start one. Give parry the situation any way you like: type a few words, paste what they sent, add a screenshot, or just say it out loud. Pick a tone, and you get four ready-to-send replies in about five seconds. Tap to copy, switch back to your chat, and send. How it works 1. Give parry the context. Describe a situation, paste a message, attach a screenshot, or speak it. 2. Pick a tone. Casual, Professional, Supportive, Witty, or Assertive, plus a custom tone of your own. 3. Send it. Four options appear. Copy your favorite and you're done. Reply, or write the hard message first parry works both ways. Answer a loaded text from your boss, a message from someone you're into, or a group chat you've been ignoring. Or draft the message you've been putting off, like telling someone you can't make it, and let parry find the words.
