A month with Instinct brought useful follow-ups and an email sent before approval

Instinct is a personal assistant reached through familiar messaging apps. A month of using it gave one reviewer both a reason to keep it and a reason to worry.

What happenedAndroid Authority's Sanuj Bhatia reports flight follow-ups, a wedding-invitation website and Gmail summaries. He also describes an email sent before he approved the final wording.

Why it mattersHis account shows why giving an assistant up can be hard: the tasks were things he might otherwise postpone. That benefit does not settle the separate questions of inbox access and control over actions.
