Frequently asked questions

Why haven't I received beta access?

Submitting an email is an application, not automatic acceptance. Spaces are limited and selected testers receive access instructions by email.

Does applying guarantee access?

No. Beta spaces are limited.

Why does Google ask for authorisation?

Next Move operates inside Google Docs and requires the permissions necessary for the features you choose to use. Review Google's authorisation screen before proceeding.

What is Highlight Only?

It uses the text you have selected as the basis for the coaching response.

What is Nearby?

It may use limited surrounding text from the current document to better understand the selected passage.

Does Next Move write my assignment?

No. It coaches the writing process by offering directions, possible starts and explanations. You remain responsible for the final writing.

How do I clear History?

Use the History controls in Next Move to remove recent coaching history associated with your beta use.

What if a response takes too long?

Wait briefly, then retry the request. If the problem continues, report it to support.
