The native mobile app gives you an inbox for work awaiting your response, a browser for workspace assets, and a project list. Use it to review an approval, inspect an email draft, or return to project content from your phone. These instructions apply when you have access to the native app.

How to review an approval and send a draft from your phone

  1. Open Inbox
  2. Read the request
  3. Switch to List
  4. Approve or reject
  5. Open the session
  6. View the draft
  7. Check the draft
  8. Send it

​
Review work in your inbox

  1. Open Inbox. Review the items waiting for your response.
  2. Use Review or List to choose how you browse pending approvals.
  3. Read the requested action. In Review, answer with the reject (X) or approve (check) buttons below the card. In List, each row shows Reject and Approve buttons when the item offers those actions.
  4. A row marked Needs input opens the session that raised it, where you answer in chat. On an approval screen, the chat-icon Open session button does the same.
  5. Under DRAFTS TO SEND, select View to inspect a draft before sending it. The draft screen has Discard, Save and Send.
  6. Select Send when the draft is ready. This sends its current provider content as it is.
Approvals and drafts serve different purposes. An approval answers a request from a blocked run. A draft is prepared content you can review and send. The inbox badge counts pending approvals and drafts together.

​
Browse and create assets

  1. Open Drive and select Assets to browse workspace assets.
  2. Search for an asset or narrow the list by asset type.
  3. Tap an asset to open it. Use Favorites to browse saved favorites or Drives to open a drive container.
  4. Open Create to start new work. Choose an asset type such as Document, Spreadsheet, or Presentation, then complete its creation flow.

​
Open a project

  1. Open Projects and use Search or create a project to find a project.
  2. Tap the project to open its content.
  3. Under Project content, tap a linked file or session to open it.
  4. Select Open full project when you need the full web project view.

​
Good to know

Your workspace and asset permissions still apply on mobile. Inbox actions depend on the type of request and your authority to answer it. An asset may open through a native view or a web view, depending on its type. Native app distribution is separate from adding a browser shortcut to your phone’s home screen. These steps do not describe the browser shortcut.

​
Recover a response and inspect activity

  1. Open the session on your phone.
  2. To request the response again, open the assistant message’s action menu and choose Retry when available.
  3. To resume a stopped or interrupted run, select Continue below the latest run marker when it appears.
  4. Tap the message’s activity row to open Agent activity and inspect reasoning and tool activity.
  5. Tap a chat image to open Image preview.
Recovery controls require an editable session and are unavailable while a run is already active.

​
Open application previews

Open a User Interface asset to view its preview, or a Computer asset to view its running application. A Computer must have an available application port before its preview can load. These previews use your existing asset access.
