I’ve been experimenting with the iOS Scheduled Summary notifications feature (no, not the AI summary thing).

This feature has been out for a while but I just started using it a few weeks ago. I love the idea and the fun mosaic layouts are very appealing, but it’s mostly been hit or miss for me. Straight up bugs are annoying. Like sometimes notifications I dismiss from the summary will reappear in the main list much later so then I’m left to wonder: did this save any of my time or attention?

It’s also a lot of work to set up. I wish there was a “select all” when opting for which apps should be the summary. The idea that apps by default should send notifications constantly and at all times is insane. No wonder we are all collectively addicted to these telephones.
