Connect Your Apps
Why Connect Apps?
When you connect your apps, Cloa gains real context about your life — your schedule, emails, documents, and messages. This lets Cloa:
- Check your calendar and warn about conflicts
- Summarize unread emails and messages
- Create and edit documents from conversations
- Send messages on your behalf
- Prepare daily briefings with real data
Finding Integrations
There are two ways to get to the integrations screen:
- From the Home screen — Tap the Connect apps button
- From anywhere — Open the Menu popup and tap Integrations
The page is titled Apps and includes a search bar at the top to quickly find what you need. Each integration has a Connect button next to it.
