Apple has temporarily disabled notification summaries for news and entertainment apps in the iOS 18.3 developer beta, addressing concerns about inaccurate summaries highlighted by outlets like the BBC. The feature, powered by Apple Intelligence, will be re-enabled with a future update after the company refines it. The new beta also includes clearer labeling of the feature as a beta and allows users to disable summaries for specific apps through the lock screen or Notification Center.
Apple has temporarily stopped showing notification summaries for news and entertainment apps as part of the iOS 18.3 developer beta released Thursday, according to reports from MacRumors and 9to5Mac. The Apple Intelligence-powered feature was criticized after it inaccurately summarized content from outlets such as the BBC. Apple will reenable the notifications “with a future software update” as it continues to work on the feature, 9to5Mac reports.
” Additionally, 9to5Mac says Apple will let you disable notifications for specific apps from the lock screen or Notification Center in iOS 18.3 by “swiping, tapping ‘Options,’ then choosing the ‘Turn Off Summaries.’” The company will also use italicized text on the lock screen to make it easier to tell notification summaries and standard notifications apart. The Verge reached out to Apple with a request for more information about these changes but didn’t immediately hear back.
