Apple Intelligence Offers In-App Writing Tools for Enhanced Editing

Apple Intelligence provides editing, summarizing, and tone adjustment tools for convenient in-app text refinement

Apple’s latest feature, Apple Intelligence, introduces versatile in-app writing tools that allow users to quickly edit text across various applications, including messaging apps, emails, and Notes. By highlighting selected text and choosing “Writing Tools,” users gain access to editing functions, which include grammar and spelling correction, tone adjustment, and even summarization of content. These tools, designed to enhance productivity, offer different tone options—such as friendly, professional, or concise—to suit various communication styles.

Although efficient, Apple Intelligence’s tone adjustments may occasionally miss the mark in language appropriateness. For instance, a casual “Hey, what’s for dinner?” was transformed into the more peculiar “Hey, what’s the yummy dinner plan?” under a “friendly” rewrite. Despite such quirks, these tools can prove useful for basic tasks like quickly crafting email responses, though users are advised to review AI-generated content before sending to ensure accuracy and tone consistency.

The summarization feature in Apple Intelligence can be particularly useful for organizing lengthy notes or meeting highlights. By condensing information into key points, it provides a streamlined way for users to manage and structure their content effectively. While the tool shows promise in supporting everyday editing needs, Apple Intelligence may still require oversight for handling complex or nuanced communications.
