What’s changing
Last 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.

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.
