I’ve seen and tested it before on Android Auto). Looks like Google is ready for this Integrate AI email digest into Gmail app.

The information comes from PiunikaWeb and Twitter/X message AssembleDebug comes from code analyst and not only makes it clear the existence and function of this button, but also Available in the Android Gmail app.

Currently users Google Workspace Labs can now use Gemini to summarize emailsbut as explained on the support page, this AI-powered tool is only available in the desktop version of the browser and is limited to email threads with more than two replies rather than individual emails.

Because this would also be a very useful function for Gmail on smartphones; especially when it comes to: dealing with long, dense or plain emails containing important information. If its existence and integration is confirmed, it will be greatly facilitated to obtain basic information such as flights when emails arrive, without having to take them to other services, thus protecting privacy.
