Google aims to save you from sending an email you may regret in the morning.
When you enable Mail Goggles, it will check that you’re really sure you want to send that late night Friday email. And what better way to check than by making you solve a few simple math problems after you click send to verify you’re in the right state of mind?
Mail Goggles is active late night on the weekend by default, but once enabled you can adjust the General settings. Anyone who burns the midnight oil and is feeling testy at the boss might want to set Googles to cover the work week. Just to avoid a feeling of self-loathing and “OMG I can’t believe I sent that” the next day.
