How Subtext works: a real message, start to finish
Subtext reads a message before you send it: the whole thread, not just your line. Below is one real exchange played back exactly as the app handled it, followed by what each feature does.
Some messages you can't unsend
Here is one real message, start to finish, exactly as Subtext returned it. Tap any tag, version or note to see what it caught.
Tap a tag to see what Subtext caught
This is one real message run through the app. Every tag, explanation, version and note is exactly what it gave back. Tap anything.
Write your message. Subtext reads the tone.
Like a therapist for messages: it spots the emotions and the triggers before they land.
Reads the tone first
It marks the exact words that could feel harsh, passive or easy to misread, then names the feeling underneath. It watches for 48 kinds of trigger and reads from a vocabulary of 51 emotions.
look i really need u to stop sending voice msgs without any text... it freaks me out and u know that but u keep doing it anyway?!!
Bring it any way it comes
Cut your response time by 90%. Type a draft, paste a screenshot of the thread, or record a voice note. It reads the whole conversation and drafts your reply.
The composer just says "Write or ask me to...". A half-finished draft is enough.
Drop a screenshot of the thread. It reads the whole conversation, not just your line.
Talk it out instead of typing. It works with their voice messages too.
Thinks it through with you
When a message really matters, it stops and asks what you want to get across, then writes from your answer instead of guessing.
What should your reply get across most?
Fine-tune without prompting
No prompt writing. Tap shorter, warmer, more casual or add confidence, and it rewrites while still sounding like you.
Make it warmer and add empathy if necessary.
Make it shorter without switching the language of the message.
Sound more natural
Add light humor to soften. Avoid sarcasm at all cost.
Make it sound confident (but keep it empathetic if possible).
Different ways to say it
One message, three directions, side by side. Read the warm one against the short one and send whichever sounds like you.
You didn't do anything wrong. I just find it easier with a little text. I still love your voice messages, promise.
We're completely fine. It's a small thing that just helps my head. Nothing more than that.
All good. A quick line of text is all I meant. We're good.
Works in 17+ languages
It reads and answers in the language you write in, and it stays native, not translated. The tags, the explanations and the safe-to-send note all switch with it.
