New ways for language and text
With Apple Intelligence you have new opportunities to improve your written texts and to communicate more effectively. The writing aid ‘Writing Tools’ is built in and helps you with rewriting, checking and summarizing text, where you also type: mail, notes, pages or apps from other manufacturers.
With the Rewrite-Feature (rewrite) of Apple Intelligence you can choose from different variations of what you have written yourself, to adjust the tone for example or to ensure that the text fits well with the target group. This way you can polish your motivation letter during an application or provide an invitation with a touch of humor and creativity.
The proofread feature (correct) checks your text for language errors, word choice and sentence structure. You get to see proposed improvements, always with explanation, which you can go through quietly or implement it immediately. And with the Feature Summarge (summarizing) you can select text and have it automatically summarized into one well -arranged paragraph, only the main points, a table or a list.
Finally, you can also write new text with the writing function in collaboration with Chatgpt.
