Google Redesigns Gemini App with New AI Experience, As was already mentioned, Google has updated its popular app the Gemini app. With the release of the updated version, the user can see how the company tries to implement its idea of the use of artificial intelligence in all spheres of people’s lives. As part of the current update, there were a number of significant improvements in the functionality of the app. Among the previous updates that indicate this trend one can point out, for example, Gemini 3.5, Gemini Omni, and Agentic AI in Search.
Indeed, the redesigned application is more advanced because of the increase in its capability. In other words, instead of serving only as a simple chatbot, it now acts as a digital assistant. To be more precise, it is capable of seeing, understanding, generating content, summarizing, creating content, etc.
To begin with, it is necessary to note that there were certain changes made to the design of the interface. First and foremost, the company decided not to limit the users to the traditional chatting. On the contrary, it decided to develop an entirely new type of interface that would be more advanced and easy-to-use.
In addition to that, the users will now see different options related to taking actions, i.e., different recommendations, tools (image analysis, summarization, translation, creation of content, etc.).
Furthermore, unlike earlier versions of Gemini app, the redesigned version suggests actions according to the situation. In this way, it is now more proactive rather than reactive.
What else should be noted about the redesigned interface? Google has made the navigation much easier since the new interface makes it possible to track the progress in tasks, resume the current chats, review the results obtained, and manage all AI-based projects in one place. Such an approach follows the current trend when Google tries to unify all Gemini’s capabilities (reasoning, search, creativity, and productivity) within one platform.
The capabilities described above are made possible because of some improvements provided by Gemini 3.5 and Gemini Omni models.
Gemini 3.5 has made the app capable of processing and comprehending various types of instructions and acting accordingly. At the same time, thanks to Gemini Omni, it has become able to work with different multimodal inputs in real time.
This means that, among other things, users can upload images or videos, make voice calls, ask AI to analyze various charts or perform other types of creative tasks all in the same conversation.
Here is an example: if a user uploads a screenshot of a text, the AI can analyze it, translate it, extract data from it, or suggest tasks to complete in relation to that text.
If he/she uploads an image of a room, Gemini will help to make adjustments, recognize objects, or develop a floor plan.
If it is students who use the app, it can analyze their handwritten notes, digitize them, and summarize them. It will be able to generate additional practice questions for students.
Thus, all those capabilities of Gemini AI have been implemented in the redesigned version of the app.
One of the most important updates of the new Gemini app is the ability of AI to perform actions on behalf of users due to the incorporation of Google’s recent research related to agentic AI. Namely, while AI incorporated into Google Search can now execute various actions in the web, Gemini is now able to execute actions in the app.
Namely, with the redesigned Gemini app, users can now:
The thing that is especially interesting is that Gemini does not wait for a step-by-step instruction but performs all these actions automatically based on the final objective set by the user.
Namely, the user can simply ask Gemini to help him/her prepare for the marketing exam next week, and it will immediately create a plan for it. It will outline topics for studying, make flashcards, and find useful resources.
Another update of the new Gemini app includes personalization. Google now allows AI to learn about user preferences and provide more recommendations and help to users depending on whether they want to get more assistance in working with productivity, creativity, or something else.
Namely, if a user is looking for assistance in productivity, the app suggests various tools for managing his/her work. If it is a creator that needs help, the app will offer to work with various multimedia materials. And for students, the app will suggest tools for preparing for exams and studying.
Besides that, Gemini now keeps track of each of the conversations held before and considers them in its further activity. Therefore, it is quite easy for AI to remember any previous actions of the user and continue to perform actions.
Another improvement worth mentioning refers to the interaction with Google’s other services. With such software, it is now possible to connect to Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, Google Drive, Google Calendar, and Google Docs.
Thus, users are able to utilize AI in writing emails in Gmail, file management in Google Drive, data extraction from Google Sheets, scheduling events in Google Calendar, making travel plans in Google Maps, and video summarization on YouTube.
In conclusion, it is appropriate to highlight that with this update, Google is slowly moving towards a future that is going to be full of technologies powered by artificial intelligence. With previous updates like Gemini 3.5, Gemini Omni, and agentic AI in Google Search, Google has set up the base for a new digital world, which will see the role of AI increasing day by day.
