Gemini summary cards are now available in the Gmail mobile app

Google continues to enhance its AI's capabilities across various services. Workspace users can now access Gemini summary cards in the Gmail app for mobile phones.

The feature arrives a year after Gemini was added in Gmail's side panel in the web version, and Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drive. Summarize in Gmail isn't particularly new, though it worked differently. When you tap on “Summarize this email”, it would open the Gemini app to display a summary of your mail.

That's changing, the process is being streamlined. Gemini will summarize mails in Gmail right in the email app, and the summaries will be placed at the top of the message. However, it won't be available in every mail. Google says that Gemini summary cards will be available for messages where it is required, such as long email threads, or messages with several replies. The AI will analyze the key points from the emails, including replies, and present it to you in an accessible form that is easy to understand. Earlier, you had to trigger the action manually, now the summarization is done automatically, i.e. when the app detects that an email thread is long, it will generate a summary before you even open the mail. The AI will even keep the summary up-to-date when new replies are received. If you don't see the summary card, you can manually tap on the “summarize this email” option to create a summary.
