  • If you switch the Summarize Pages toggle to off, Summarization will no longer be available. Summarize Page will no longer appear as an option in the address bar or website menu. And, you won’t be able to use the shake gesture to summarize pages.
  • If you switch the Shake to Summarize toggle off, this turns off the shake gesture. You’ll still have the option to summarize pages from the address bar and website menu.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust the summaries?

Summaries are powered by generative AI, which is predictive technology and not guaranteed to always be accurate. Summaries may have mistakes. You should verify summaries against the original page.

Also, summaries are based on the information within the page. They don’t access other sources for information. If something on the page is inaccurate, that inaccuracy may appear in the summary, too.

Can I summarize paywall content?

For paywalled content, we can only summarize the text that is visible in your browser.

What languages can be summarized?

For now, page summaries are only to English-speaking Firefox for iOS users. However, support for additional devices and languages will be added in the future.

Who can see what I’m summarizing?

Firefox takes a privacy-preserving approach to summarizing web pages. For iPhone 15 Pro or later users on iOS 26+, we use the on-device Apple Intelligence model to create the summary directly on your phone. For all other users, the web page content is processed on Mozilla-hosted services using the Mistral Small 3.1 model. The summary is sent directly back to your device.
