In theory, the idea of notification summaries sounds great – iOS 18 uses the power of Apple Intelligence to summarize multiple notifications from a particular app into one, easy-to-read preview that you can scan with minimal effort.
Unfortunately, the result of these Notification summaries can be a little bit more dystopian than you’d like them to be, wiping out all nuance and human emotion from statements. Take the example of X.com user and software engineer Nick Spreen who found out via a Notification summary that his relationship with his girlfriend was over with the rather cold, if succinct, "No longer in a relationship; wants belongings from the apartment".
