Gemini in Chrome and auto browse roll out on Android in the US

After previewing Gemini in Chrome in May, Google has now completed rolling out the feature to Android users in the United States. This AI-powered tool is accessible through a toolbar shortcut located to the right of the address bar, or through the three-dot overflow menu near the bottom of the screen. Tapping the spark icon reveals a nearly identical interface to the desktop version, with the ability to add the current page as context for the prompt, which can be disabled in Settings.

The tools menu enables users to activate Personal Intelligence, which encompasses Calendar, Keep, and other integrated applications. The sheet can be slid down and remain docked at the bottom of the screen for easy access. Gemini in Chrome excels at summarizing web pages and answering questions about the content being viewed. Integration with Nano Banana allows users to edit images directly.

For Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, auto browse takes on an autonomous role, handling a variety of mundane tasks on behalf of the user. These tasks can range from booking parking for an event and updating recurring online orders, to organizing travel arrangements for an upcoming vacation. However, sensitive tasks such as purchases still require explicit user confirmation. For comprehensive coverage, 9to5Google offers detailed insights on their YouTube channel.
