Sundar Pichai’s Announcement
Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced the launch on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “The app allows you to type, talk, or even add an image to get the assistance you need. Take a picture of a flat tire for instructions on how to change it, or get help writing that perfect thank you note – the possibilities are endless.”
The company added, “This marks a significant step forward in our journey to build a truly conversational, multimodal, and helpful AI assistant.”
How to Access Gemini
Download the Gemini app or opt-in through Google Assistant. You can then use Gemini by corner swiping, hitting the power button on select phones, or saying “Hey Google.”
On iOS, Gemini access is rolling out directly from the Google app; just tap the Gemini toggle and start chatting.
