Improve “Shorten” Notification UX + Enhanced Memory Management Tools (Edit, Trim, Summarize)

🧠 Context

As a user, I’m frequently seeing push notifications in the iOS TestFlight build with the message to “Shorten” a transcription or memory. However, when I tap the notification, it just opens the app with no clear indication of:

  • What exactly needs to be shortened,

  • Why it should be shortened,

  • Or how to take action.

This creates confusion and reduces usability — especially for new users who may not know what “shorten” refers to.



🔧 Proposal

Please improve the “Shorten” notification logic and user flow with the following enhancements:

1.Direct Linking

  • When user taps the “Shorten” notification, open the specific memory/transcription that triggered it.

2. Highlight the Issue

  • Visually highlight or tag the item that needs shortening.

  • Add a reason (e.g. “Too long for summary engine”, “May be trimmed for better results”, etc.)

3. Actionable Tools

  • Add options to:

    • ✂️ Trim the transcript manually

    • 📝 Edit it

    • 🗑️ Delete part of it if needed

4. Informative Tooltip or Modal

  • Add a quick tooltip or info modal to explain what “shorten” means and why it’s suggested.

🚀 Benefits

  • Better clarity for users

  • Improved UX around data cleanup

  • Encourages better transcript hygiene

  • Easier debugging and fewer support questions
