In the app, when applying for a gig, you can set your response to be automatically withdrawn if you haven't been picked yet. This is useful if you want to avoid being booked at the last minute.

How it works: Suppose you apply for a gig on 1 January at 10:00. When applying, you choose ‘Automatically withdraw response’ and set it to 3 hours in advance. If you haven't heard back from the client by 07:00, the app will automatically withdraw your application. You can then no longer be picked for that gig.

You do not have to use this feature. As long as you haven't been picked, you can always withdraw your response yourself without any consequences.
