Google’s Gemini AI adds a new convenient and awaited functionality to the Gmail app for Android: the ability to summarize emails.
The previous reports have already revealed that the Gmail app for Android devices is going to have the ability to summarize emails using Google’s Gemini AI. Now, recent reports are revealing that this feature is close to launch.
A colleague Android Authority contributor and reliable cose sleuth Assemble Debug managed to activate the feature on version 2024.04.21.626860299 of the Gmail app. Google has not yet widely rolled out the feature, but we expect it to happen soon.
Expectations are that Google will formally announce the feature at the upcoming I/O 2024 event, along with many other announcements about the upcoming iteration, including the launch of the Pixel 8a.
Once the brand officially rolls out this feature, you will see a “Summarize this email” button under the subject line of their emails. If you hit the button, it will generate a quick summary of the email. This feature should be especially convenient for lengthy emails with lots of text and other details.
You will also have the power to rate the quality of the summary by tapping the thumbs-up and thumbs-down buttons under the summarized text. Probably, this will help Google improve Gemini’s summarizing capabilities. It will also offer a button to copy the summary to the clipboard.
