New Gemini summary cards now available in the Gmail app on Android and iOS devices
What’s changingLast year, we announced the general availability of Gemini in the side panel of Gmail, allowing users to summarize email threads, get help drafting an email, see suggested responses to an email thread, and more. To build upon this and streamline how users review and interact with emails, we’re excited to introduce Gemini summary cards on mobile. Prior to today, to generate an email summary, you would tap “Summarize this email” at the top of a message, which then opened Gemini to show you a summary of the thread. Starting today, summaries will be available at the top of the email content for messages where a summary is helpful, such as longer email threads or messages with several replies. Gemini will synthesize all the key points from the email thread and any replies thereafter will also be a part of the synopsis, keeping all summaries up to date. Additional details This feature is only available for emails in English at this time. As with all of our AI features, Gmail remains committed to protecting user data and prioritizing privacy. Refer to our Privacy Hub site to learn more. Emails that do not show summary cards will continue to support user-triggered summaries with the “summarize this email” chip at the top of emails or the option to summarize using Gemini in the side panel. Getting started Admins: Admins can turn the default personalization setting ON or OFF for their users in the Admin console.
