Google Search just lost a handy research feature, but Gemini still has it
The useful "Export to Docs" feature has vanished in Google Search, but there's a workaround.
Google Search’s AI Mode has lost a handy research feature: the direct “Export to Docs” shortcut in its three-dot menu. This removal affects both desktop and mobile users, with the disappearance confirmed across platforms. Google has not yet indicated whether this shortcut will return to the AI Mode interface.
The research workflow that typically involved a couple of taps is now more cumbersome. Users, who relied on this feature to gather explanations, useful information, and save everything to Google Docs for later, have expressed frustration over the sudden change. The “Export to Docs” option is no longer visible in the three-dot menu, replaced by a single “About this response” choice. Similar user reports have surfaced on platforms like Reddit, highlighting the inconvenience caused by this unexpected removal.
