The real mobile advantage is not a bigger model or a louder claim. It is the fact that the article can move straight from the page you are reading into a shorter, more useful version with almost no setup.
What this workflow solves
Phone reading often dies on friction. If the process requires copying text, switching apps, cleaning prompts, and pasting again, many useful articles simply never get read. The share menu removes that dead weight.
Workflow
- Open the article in Safari or another app.
- Tap Share and send the link to Summarizr.
- Read the short version before deciding whether to keep going.
- Open the original article only when the topic is worth a deeper pass.
Why this is better than a blank chat screen
The app starts from the link you already have. That matters on mobile. It saves the small repeated effort that makes long reading feel heavier than it should.
Best-fit use cases
- Commutes, queues, and other short reading windows.
- News and analysis you may otherwise postpone until later and then forget.
- Any article where convenience decides whether you engage with it at all.

If the article is in another language, use the translation workflow. If the topic is important, continue with follow-up questions after the short version.
