Goodbye to Writing Emails: Google is About to Make Our Lives Easier
Google already announced in June 2023 that its AI-based Help Me Write tool for Gmail would come to both Android and iOS. But today we talk…
Many of us have jobs that require us to spend the day writing, whether it’s articles, analyses, news, or emails. There’s no solution for the first three tasks, but as for the last one, writing emails, Google wants to make our lives easier. More pleasant.
According to the 9to5Google news outlet, the email service is working on a “voice typing” feature that would allow users to compose messages using only their voice, with the help of AI to refineand finalize their messages before sending them.
This new feature could be part of an expansion of the “Help me write” tool, which is part of the company’s Duet AI platform, increasingly integrated into Google Workspace in recent months.
The expansion of voice composition could be an incredibly useful tool for those who wish to send quick messages or replies while traveling, heading to a meeting, or appointment, with Duet AI picking up the pieces to craft their voice note into a formal message.
The 9to5Google team has also uncovered hints that the “Help me write” feature of Duet AI might also be undergoing a slight revision in terms of how it’s rolled out.
If your email message is blank, upon clicking Help me write, you’ll be offered a suggestion for the message. If you’ve already started writing, the “Refine my message” menu will appear, offering options like Formalize, Elaborate, and Shorten, alongside “Write a draft,” which will return you to the suggestion field.

The changes in “Help me write” have been rolled out today for Gmail on Android and iOS. However, as for “voice typing,”we’ll have to wait and see what happens, as although its presence in the APK is a good indication that Google is working on its introduction, it could still take some time.
Google announced in June 2023 that its AI-based Help Me Write tool for Gmail would be coming to both Android and iOS to assist users in composing email responses.
