Smart reply can save your valuable time



Well that's another cool feature from Google. And I think it's almost magical. It's a great sign of artificial intelligence! Starting from May 2017, hopefully this option will get huge popularity and will do much better in the coming days . . .



What is Smart Reply Actually?

When you use your Gmail App on Android or iOS operating system you may see some automatic reply options at the bottom of an email. Look at the examples below: 



What for?

Think about a situation. You're going somewhere and you're in a hurry. You've a bag in one hand and that time you got a message from one of your friends. Maybe the message is not very crucial but you've to answer something. 


In these situations Smart Reply is really helpful to save your time and effort. You can simply open the message and tap on any of the suggested replies. 




Example 1


3 Replies below the Message


When you open a message you will see three automatic reply suggestions. If you tap on any of them, then the tapped text will be prepared as your reply. If you are in a hurry or if you don't need to add anything else you can hit the send button.
