TechTip Thursday: Mac Can "Summarize"

Hello Everyone! There's a new hidden Mac feature that can help everyone with lengthy articles. The feature is called "summarize" and it is built into every Mac.

To enable this great feature you'll first want to open up system preferences and navigate to "keyboard".

 Next you will want to click on the "Shortcuts" tab.


Then you will want to click on "services" in the box on the left side.


Then you will want to find the "summarize" in the box on the right hand side.
Note: you may have to scroll near the bottom depending on how much is installed on your computer.





You now have summarize activated; to use the feature highlight a piece of text.


Go to "services" then click "summarize"


You'll get this box with the summarized text. You can use the slider in the box to move between 1 and 100 percent of the highlighted text. It will vary in length depending on what you select.
