Declining something without sounding blunt
cant do friday, got too much on. maybe next week idk
The original is not rude, it just reads as though you could not be bothered. This is the most common reason people reach for polish.
You can polish and correct LinkedIn messages today. Write the message however it comes out, tap polish, and FlickReply fixes the spelling, grammar and punctuation and returns 3 to 4 rewritten versions to pick from — that works in every Android app, LinkedIn included. What does not work in LinkedIn yet is the AI reply assistant, which drafts a reply from the conversation; that currently works in WhatsApp and Instagram and LinkedIn support is in development.
Reply drafting is not available here yet. Polish and correct works in LinkedIn today, like every other app. The AI reply assistant — which reads a conversation and drafts a reply from it — works in WhatsApp and Instagram today, and LinkedIn support is in development.
LinkedIn is the surface where people most often stall on the first sentence, because the stakes feel higher and the conventions are stricter. It is also the place where a message that reads as a template gets ignored, which is the trap most AI writing tools fall into — and the reason tone control matters more there than raw generation.
These describe reply drafting, which is not in LinkedIn yet — it works in WhatsApp and Instagram today. Polishing and correcting a message you have written already works here.
The intended workflow: write the honest answer in your own words — interested, not interested, interested but not now — and refine it into a professional tone. Faster than drafting diplomatically from scratch, and it sounds less like a template. This works in WhatsApp and Instagram today.
A short personal note has a much better acceptance rate than the blank default. Removing the friction that makes people skip it is the main thing LinkedIn support is being built for.
Drafting a comment from the post you are replying to, then editing it so it carries your actual opinion. The draft is scaffolding, not the final text.
Real messages, typed the way people actually type them, and the versions that come back.

Four spelling errors, two missing apostrophes and a run-on sentence, fixed in the same pass as the rewrite. The third version is what the short tone produces.
Worth knowing before you install rather than after.
If the original message is ambiguous, the rewrites will be confidently ambiguous in 3 to 4 different ways. Polish improves how a message reads, not whether the underlying thought was clear.
If you write in a distinctive way on purpose — clipped, blunt, very informal — the rewrites will smooth that out. Some people polish everything; others only use it for work messages for exactly this reason.
Nothing changes until you tap. If you want mistakes fixed silently while you write, that is autocorrect, and FlickReply does not replace it.
FlickReply is an Android input method, so the system hands it every text field on the device — the keyboard itself, the whole tools panel, and polishing a message you have written all work in LinkedIn, your browser, your notes app and anything you install next month. Only reply drafting is per-app, because it reads the conversation on screen, and that works in WhatsApp and Instagram today.
Partly, today. FlickReply can correct and rewrite a LinkedIn message you have written: tap polish and it fixes the spelling, grammar and punctuation and returns 3 to 4 rewritten versions. That works in every Android app. What it cannot do yet is read a LinkedIn conversation and draft a reply from it — reply drafting works in WhatsApp and Instagram and LinkedIn support is in development with no confirmed date.
There is no announced date. LinkedIn and Gmail are the next two apps planned for AI support. Rather than publish a date and miss it, we will say when it is close — the contact page is the fastest way to ask to be notified.
Once LinkedIn support ships, it will draft and re-tone messages one at a time in the field you are typing in — so it suits replying and personalising rather than bulk sending. There is no template library, no mail merge and no scheduling, and none are planned. Today the AI works in WhatsApp and Instagram, so for LinkedIn outreach specifically it is not yet the right tool.
LinkedIn has no way to see which keyboard you typed with — a keyboard delivers text to the field exactly as manual typing does. What people can notice is a message that reads as generic, which is a writing problem rather than a detection one. Editing the draft so it carries something specific to the person you are messaging is what makes the difference.
Correcting and rewriting a message works in LinkedIn right now, free. Reply drafting works in WhatsApp and Instagram today and LinkedIn will follow, with nothing to reinstall.
