“I'll send that quote.” “Let me get back to you.” Promises like these quietly disappear into a busy day. BlindSpot remembers them so nothing falls through the cracks.
What should we call this account?
Any provider works — Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud, anything. This just adds it to your list; nothing is connected yet, and nothing is ever written back or shared. We'll reach out to finish connecting it, usually the same day.
Every email you send can quietly create a promise — a deadline, a follow-up, something someone's now waiting on. BlindSpot reads your sent mail and surfaces those before they slip.
In Safari's toolbar (usually along the bottom), find the Share icon — a square with an arrow pointing up out of it.
A list of options slides up. Scroll down it until you see "Add to Home Screen" and tap it.
Safari shows the BlindSpot name and icon it'll use — you can leave it as-is. Tap "Add" in the top right to finish.
Done — BlindSpot's icon is now on your Home Screen, just like a regular app. Open it from there from now on (not from Safari) so notifications work.
Three steps to get real commitments flowing in.
Right now, BlindSpot only reads your inbox — it doesn't label, archive, mark things read, or change anything in Gmail. Every status you see here (done, snoozed, dismissed, restored) lives only in BlindSpot's own database, so your mailbox stays exactly as you left it. Think of it less as something managing your inbox and more like a second pair of eyes, reminding you of what might get missed. If a future version adds an optional write action, it'll be a separate, clearly-labeled choice — never something turned on quietly.
Add any inbox you want tracked below — that just adds it to your list. Getting one actually connected takes one more step, done once per mailbox: a direct, private connection so nothing ever leaves that inbox. Ask your assistant to set that up once it's on the list below.
BlindSpot quietly learns from your "Not a commitment" calls: once you've dismissed 3 messages from the same address, future ones from them land pre-dismissed instead of showing up as open. Nothing here ever touches Gmail — it's just BlindSpot's own filter, and you can undo it anytime below.
When a card's risk, owner, or action looks wrong, tap the ⋯ menu → Flag issue. Nothing about the commitment changes — this just keeps a running list here so classification can actually be tuned from real examples instead of guesswork. Clear an item once you've looked at it.
Get a push the moment a new commitment lands. Tap the 🔔 bell on the dashboard, or the button below, then allow notifications.
On iPhone, notifications only work once BlindSpot is added to your Home Screen first.
Choose how BlindSpot looks. System follows your device's setting automatically.
Collapse the "Other open items" group — the lower-priority commitments that aren't waiting on you, waiting on a reply, or high risk — behind a "Show more" tap instead of filling the screen. Nothing is hidden for good, just tucked out of the way by default.
Download every commitment BlindSpot has tracked — open, done, and dismissed — as a CSV for your own records. Nothing leaves your device.
Permanently deletes every commitment BlindSpot has tracked for you, disconnects every mailbox, and removes your login entirely. This happens immediately and can't be undone — there's no grace period or recovery.
Type DELETE to confirm. This can't be undone.
