Stay informed without the noise by creating a personalized daily news report. This new workflow combines the power of RSS feeds with Apple Intelligence to automatically fetch, filter, and summarize articles from your favorite news sources. The entire report is then compiled into a single, easy-to-read note, delivering a tailored news briefing directly to you.
This feature is powered by the new News Report AI shortcut, which automates the entire news-gathering process. The shortcut first fetches recent articles from a specified RSS feed using the Get 50 items from action. It then uses the Filter RSS Items action to narrow down the list to only articles published today. For each article, the shortcut gets the full content and uses the Use Cloud model action with Apple Intelligence to generate a concise, three-sentence summary. Finally, it combines the article's title, image, summary, and original URL into a new note in the Apple Notes app.
You can customize this shortcut to fit your needs. To change the news source, simply edit the shortcut and replace the default URL in the Get 50 items from action with your preferred RSS feed link. To make the shortcut run faster, you can reduce the number of articles it fetches. For the fastest performance, switch the Use Cloud model action to Use On-Device model, though summary quality may vary.
The Daily News Report shortcut is a powerful example of how Apple Intelligence can transform routine tasks into fully automated workflows. By combining RSS feeds with on-device AI, you can create a personalized and efficient way to stay updated on the topics that matter most to you. Set it up once as a daily automation, and enjoy a curated news digest delivered right to your Notes app every day.
