Mozilla is taking advantage of the on-device Apple Intelligence capabilities in iOS 26 to offer a shake-to-summarize feature in the latest iPhone version of Firefox.
Provided you have an iPhone 15 Pro or later and are running iOS 26, the summary is created directly on your device – but it’s also available for older phones …
The company offers a video demonstration of taking a busy recipe webpage, shaking the iPhone, and turning it into a clear bullet point list of ingredients and steps.
Shake activation is intended to make it quick and easy to use.
Whether you just want the recipe, need to know something fast, or want to see if a long read is worth the time, Shake to Summarize gives you the key takeaways in seconds. To activate it, you can:
- Shake your device.
- Tap the thunderbolt icon in the address bar.
The company says it can summarize web pages of up to 5,000 words.
With an iPhone 15 Pro or later, the summary is created on device using Apple Intelligence. Those with older devices can still use the feature, but in that case the text is sent to Mozilla’s own AI server, which creates the summary and then sends it back.
The feature is starting its rollout today, initially for English language web pages in the US. It will later be made available to users in other countries and for other languages, though no timings for this have been announced.
As always with AI features, use with caution.
