Most Android hardware cannot handle AI-powered summarization on-device, so on Android, Shake to Summarize will send your text to Mozilla's cloud.

Mozilla has finally brought Shake to Summarize, a feature it introduced last September on the iOS version of its Firefox browser, to Android.
Shake to summarize is an AI feature that generates a clean summary of a webpage by shaking your phone, as long as the website has fewer than 5,000 words. If you prefer not to shake your device, you can also find a "Summarize Page" option by tapping the three-dot menu in the browser. The AI can adapt its output based on the content. So if you're on a recipe blog, for example, it will smartly extract just the cooking steps, and on a sports page, it pulls the final scores.
