We have an article on this already, but how does this work practically in the app? Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Open the Kin App
Launch the Kin app on your device.
Tap the speech bubble icon on the bottom right of the screen to open Kin’s Chat feature.
If you know your goal:
Step 2: Tell Kin Your Goal
Tell Kin about your goal either by Typing or Speaking.
Make sure you tell Kin:
What you want to accomplish
Why it matters to you
When you want to accomplish it by
If you don’t know your goal:
Step 3: Discover a Goal with Kin
Ask Kin, either by typing or speaking in the Chat, the following: “What goals do you think I should work on, based on your knowledge of me?”
Using its knowledge of you, Kin will help you identify skills or habits that might benefit you to gain, and ways you can work towards them.
Step 3: Check Kin’s Knowledge
Ask Kin whether there’s anything else it needs to know about your current situation to help you reach your goals more effectively.
The more detail you provide, the better Kin will understand what methods would work better for you and your situation.
Remember to include your feelings in this discussion—they’re especially helpful to Kin!
Step 4: Break Down Steps
Now, ask Kin how best to split your goal into achievable steps based on its understanding of you and your situation.
As Kin makes suggestions about this, tell it which ideas you like, which you don’t, and why.
Don’t be afraid to add your own suggestions to the discussion too!
Continue to do this until you have a clear plan on how you’ll work on your goal and when, and what results will appear after a set time.
Step 5: Set Up Check-ins
Finally, ask Kin when in your schedule is best to check in with it on your progress toward your goal.
Like the last step, discuss until you find a time and frequency that works for your situation.
Use these check-ins to honestly report your progress, and let Kin know where you’re struggling, so Kin can help you update your plan to make it easier to follow.
You can ask Kin to set custom Reminders for these discussions through the Chat, too.
