Pause before
you send
When you're asking yourself if you should text, that's usually when you need to wait. This app helps you pause in charged moments.
Common questions
Is there a rule about when to text?
There isn't one rule that fits every situation. What matters most is timing — and how you feel when you send the message.
Why do I regret texting late at night?
Late-night messages are more likely to come from emotion rather than clarity. That's why regret shows up more often then.
Does waiting actually help?
For many people, yes. Waiting often changes how urgent the message feels — or whether it needs to be sent at all.
What if I feel like I'll forget what I wanted to say?
Write it down in your notes instead. If it still feels important later, you can send it then. If not, you've saved yourself from regret.
How do I know if I'm being emotionally activated?
Notice your physical state. If your heart is racing, you feel anxious, or you can't stop thinking about it — that's activation. Calm decisions feel different.
Is it wrong to want to text?
Not at all. Wanting to reach out is natural. The pause isn't about judging the desire — it's about choosing when to act on it.
What if they're waiting for me to text?
If they want to hear from you, they'll still want to hear from you in an hour. Urgency on your side doesn't create urgency on theirs.
Can I use this for work messages too?
Yes. The same principle applies. If you're sending from frustration or pressure rather than clarity, waiting often helps.
