Pro-tip: If you're having trouble getting Gemini to generate images in anything but a 1:1 aspect ratio, just add a blank white image with the aspect ratio you want & it'll just work.
Eg. using the same prompt, the first came out 1:1 but the second 16:9 because I did this.
🔗 Gemini's refusal to make anything but 1:1 square images is driving us crazy

A new "notification summaries" page was spotted in leaked One UI 8.5 builds that suggests Samsung phones will get an Apple-like notification summary feature.
However, this page is actually from stock Android and not specific to One UI. In fact, it's identical to the one I shared a while back.
It's possible that Samsung and Google are both working together on this, but it's tough to say right now whether anyone but Google plans to use this specific implementation.
FWIW: The reason this doesn't work currently is because the notification summary service will be part of Android System Intelligence, and the publicly available versions of it don't have the service yet.
