Usual answers
When you keep giving an agent the same answer, Assent shows it above the buttons so you can decide faster.
When you keep answering an agent the same way, Assent tells you so on its next ask, in a note above the answer buttons:
You usually approve this
You chose "Approve" on 4 of the last 5 asks like this from Release agent.
A usual answer is a suggestion only. Nothing is answered for you: you still tap the answer yourself. To have asks answered for you, use Always or Never.
When it shows
Assent looks at your last 20 answers to asks of the same kind from the same agent, and shows a usual answer when:
- there are at least 3 such answers, and
- one answer makes up at least 4 in 5 of them (80% or more), and
- that answer is one of the buttons on the new ask.
The note reads "You usually approve this" or "You usually decline this" when the answer is the approve or decline button of an approval, and "You usually choose" with the button's label otherwise.
When it does not
- Code and reply asks, because each answer is different.
- Asks in a group.
- Asks with fewer than two buttons.
- Asks you have already answered.
- Answers a standing rule gave for you do not count towards it.
