What to Know About, and Where to Find, Apple Intelligence Summaries on Your iPhone
With Apple Intelligence and a compatible iPhone, your device can provide you with a summary of a lengthy email, a webpage, Message notifications and more. It can also show you a summary of what you have written in Notes and other messages.
Here's what you need to know about summaries with Apple Intelligence on your iPhone.
Summaries in Mail
Parsing through emails and email chains for information can be tedious, especially if you get a lot of work emails sent to your device. Thankfully, Apple Intelligence can summarize emails for you so you aren't reading a lot of preamble and want to just get right to the heart of the message.
It was a great show if you were wondering.

To view email summaries, open Mail, choose the email you want to read, and then pull your screen down to reveal a new Summarize button. Tap this and you'll see some lines of summary. You can change how many lines of summary you see by going to Settings > Apps > Mail > Preview and choosing anything from no lines of summary to five.
It's also important to note that if you're using Mail Categories, you can only see AI summaries for emails in your Primary category. Emails in other categories won't give you summaries. If you're using List View in Mail all your emails will have a summary available.

Notification summaries
With Apple Intelligence, some of your apps can give you summaries of notifications on your Lock Screen, and this feature is on by default in most cases. This feature can summarize your notifications in a few words, but be careful while reading these. According to the BBC, one of the publication's headlines was summarized inaccurately.
Following the BBC's allegations, Apple temporarily disabled these summaries for notifications from news and entertainment apps. The tech company reintroduced these summaries to those app categories in the iOS 26 beta with a warning about the content of the summaries. Developers and beta testers can see these summaries again in the beta. However, since iOS 26 is still in beta, Apple could alter or disable this feature again when the company releases iOS 26 this fall.
If you don't want to risk reading a bad summary now, you can turn this feature off. Go to Settings > Notifications > Summarize Notifications and tap the toggles next to the apps you no longer want to receive notification summaries from. You can also tap the toggle next to Summarize Notifications at the top of the menu to turn the feature off for all apps.

Webpage summaries in Safari

Apple Intelligence can also summarize certain webpages in Safari. To view these summaries, open Safari and go to a webpage, then look on the left side of the address bar. You should see a rectangle with a few dashes beneath it and sparkles. Tap this symbol and it pulls up a menu showing the summary of the webpage.
Be aware that this feature isn't available on all webpages. On webpages this feature isn't working yet, the symbol on the left side of the address bar won't have any sparkles.
Summarize text with Writing Tools
Writing Tools is an Apple Intelligence menu that lets you proofread, edit or alter something you're writing. It also lets you summarize your message or notes.
To view these summaries, highlight what you want to summarize, tap Writing Tools in the pop-up menu -- you might have to scroll through the options in this menu -- and then tap Summary. Writing Tools will show you a summary of what you have highlighted, and it will let you Copy, Replace and Share that summary. These summaries could help you prepare for a presentation, let you quickly read over anything in Notes or trim your own messages down to just the key points.

Kulicke and Soffa (NASDAQ:KLIC) Q2: Beats On Revenue, Provides Optimistic Revenue Guidance for Next Quarter
Semiconductor production equipment company Kulicke & Soffa (NASDAQ: KLIC) reported Q2 CY2025 results topping the market's revenue expectations , but sales fell by 18.3% year on year to $148.4 million. On top of that, next quarter's revenue guidance ($170 million at the midpoint) was surprisingly good and 7.4% above what analysts were expecting. Its non-GAAP profit of $0.07 per share was 27.3% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy Kulicke and Soffa? Find out in our full research report. Kulicke and Soffa (KLIC) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $148.4 million vs analyst estimates of $145.8 million (18.3% year-on-year decline, 1.8% beat) Adjusted EPS: $0.07 vs analyst estimates of $0.06 (27.3% beat) Adjusted Operating Income: $1.59 million vs analyst estimates of -$931,670 (1.1% margin, significant beat) Revenue Guidance for Q3 CY2025 is $170 million at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $158.3 million Adjusted EPS guidance for Q3 CY2025 is $0.22 at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $0.19 Operating Margin: -4.1%, down from 4.6% in the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow Margin: 3.7%, down from 13.3% in the same quarter last year Inventory Days Outstanding: 182, up from 171 in the previous quarter Market Capitalization: $1.71 billion Fusen Chen, Kulicke & Soffa's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We continue to execute on multiple technology transitions supported by parallel customer engagements. As we expand our portfolio, we are unlocking new opportunities across general semiconductor, memory, automotive, and industrial markets. Additionally, we are encouraged by positive market feedback of our latest solutions and also by recent order momentum within our highest-volume regions." Company Overview Headquartered in Singapore, Kulicke & Soffa (NASDAQ: KLIC) is a provider of production equipment and tools used to assemble semiconductor devices Revenue Growth A company's long-term sales performance can indicate its overall quality. Any business can have short-term success, but a top-tier one grows for years. Regrettably, Kulicke and Soffa's sales grew at a sluggish 2.4% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years. This fell short of our benchmarks and is a poor baseline for our analysis. Semiconductors are a cyclical industry, and long-term investors should be prepared for periods of high growth followed by periods of revenue contractions. We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within semiconductors, a half-decade historical view may miss new demand cycles or industry trends like AI. Kulicke and Soffa's performance shows it grew in the past but relinquished its gains over the last two years, as its revenue fell by 10.8% annually. This quarter, Kulicke and Soffa's revenue fell by 18.3% year on year to $148.4 million but beat Wall Street's estimates by 1.8%. Despite the beat, the drop in sales could mean that the current downcycle is deepening. Company management is currently guiding for a 6.2% year-on-year decline in sales next quarter. Looking further ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 2.3% over the next 12 months. While this projection indicates its newer products and services will fuel better top-line performance, it is still below average for the sector. Today's young investors likely haven't read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next. Product Demand & Outstanding Inventory Days Inventory Outstanding (DIO) is an important metric for chipmakers, as it reflects a business' capital intensity and the cyclical nature of semiconductor supply and demand. In a tight supply environment, inventories tend to be stable, allowing chipmakers to exert pricing power. Steadily increasing DIO can be a warning sign that demand is weak, and if inventories continue to rise, the company may have to downsize production. This quarter, Kulicke and Soffa's DIO came in at 182, which is 23 days above its five-year average, suggesting that the company's inventory has grown to higher levels than we've seen in the past. Key Takeaways from Kulicke and Soffa's Q2 Results It was good to see Kulicke and Soffa beat analysts' revenue, EPS, and adjusted operating income expectations this quarter. We were also excited its guidance for next quarter outperformed Wall Street's estimates by a wide margin. A slight blemish is that its inventory levels materially increased. Zooming out, we think this was a good print with some key areas of upside. The stock traded up 4.2% to $33.43 immediately after reporting. Indeed, Kulicke and Soffa had a rock-solid quarterly earnings result, but is this stock a good investment here? When making that decision, it's important to consider its valuation, business qualities, as well as what has happened in the latest quarter. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it's free.

Paycom raises 2025 revenue and profit forecasts on AI-driven demand
(Reuters) -Payroll processor Paycom Software raised its forecast for annual revenue and profit on Wednesday, as the addition of AI features helps accelerate demand for its employee management services, sending its shares up 7% in extended trading. The company now expects fiscal 2025 revenue of $2.05 billion to $2.06 billion, up from its previous projection of $2.02 billion to $2.04 billion. Analysts on average expect $2.03 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. Paycom has been integrating artificial intelligence features into its software with its 'smart AI' suite that automates tasks such as writing job descriptions and helps employers identify which employees are most at risk of leaving. This has boosted demand for Paycom's services as businesses look to simplify workforce management functions. "We are well positioned to extend our product lead and eclipse the industry with even greater AI and automation," CEO Chad Richison said in a statement. Paycom expects 2025 core profit in the range of $872 million to $882 million, up from previous expectations of $843 million to $858 million. The payroll processor reported revenue of $483.6 million for the second quarter ended June 30, beating analysts' estimate of $472 million. Adjusted core profit was $198.3 million, compared to $159.7 million in the same period last year. Paycom's expectation of strong growth comes despite a sharp deterioration in U.S. labor market conditions. U.S. employment growth was weaker than expected in July, while the nonfarm payrolls count for the prior two months was revised down by 258,000 jobs, according to a Labor Department report.
