Aqua can format your text in any way you want: from emails, casual text, to specific region preference. For optimal performance and reliability, we recommend adding examples of the desired output.

Instructions for emails:

You can include details on your format, frequency of periods and paragraph breaks. Aqua will also remember the unique way you sign off your emails. Example you can copy and paste:

✉️

For emails, the text should have the line breaks of an email intro and signature. Make sure to use periods often to make the sentences concise and add line breaks every two sentences.

Example: ”Hey Leon, It’s great to hear from you and congratulation on the new job. I’m sure life in New York is very different from back home. We’ll be traveling to Copenhagen in July. I hope you’ll be around so you can meet the baby. Say hi to your parents for me. All the best, Liam”
