Safe Night Check

Finishing an email late at night

Writing something at midnight and sending it unread tends to be a single gesture. During the hours you set, a confirmation appears, which leaves reading it again in the morning as an option.

Not wanting it to land while the other person is off

You may be awake, but the notification goes off on their phone at the same hour. The pause gives you a moment to think about how a midnight message arrives, and to decide whether it waits.

Wanting a beat before a sharply worded reply

A rebuttal or a chase reads at its harshest right after you write it. Reading it back at the confirmation lets you choose between sending it as is and rewording it. Send anyway is always there.

Night hours only

The confirmation appears only during the night hours you set. During the day it does nothing.

Never reads your email

The only inputs are the clock and your settings. It never reads the body of your email.

No external sending

Network APIs are excluded by construction, and a build-time machine scan verifies that nothing communicates.

Never decides for you

The final call is always yours. Choose "Send anyway" and your email goes out as is.

Catch the late-night send

It acts only the instant you try to send an email on Gmail during your night hours.

Daytime sends never show anything.

Ask gently

A confirmation modal appears with an illustration of a sleeping crescent moon. It never rushes or scolds you.

"The person you are writing to may be asleep right now. How about letting this email rest until morning, too?"

You decide

Three choices. For safety, "Back to drafts" is selected first.

"Schedule send" guides you to Gmail’s own schedule-send feature.
