One UI 8.5’s notification summaries may not be to everyone’s delight

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Samsung is bringing notification summarization and prioritization features with One UI 8.5, but we’ve discovered certain limitations.
• These features will only work in the device’s default language, likely disappointing for multilingual users.
• One UI 8.5 may also bring scam detection that would analyze phone calls using AI for any fraudulent activity, though this feature may be limited to Korea initially.

Samsung’s upcoming One UI 8.5 update is expected to bring significant reforms to the Quick Settings and notifications on eligible Samsung devices. In addition to the visual changes, the update is also likely to bring iOS-like notifications summaries and prioritization features. While useful, these features may not please every user.
