Gemini Chatbot Now in Chrome for Android

Google is set to release Gemini integration within Chrome for Android devices in June. This update will introduce a new Gemini icon in the toolbar, providing access to a chat interface from the bottom of the screen. The mobile version retains many features found on PCs, including Nano Banana image generation and seamless integration with Google Calendar and Keep. Personal Intelligence, enabling Gemini to utilize context from various Google services, is also included.

To use the auto browse functionality, an AI Pro or Ultra subscription is required. This feature can assist users with tasks like reserving parking tickets for events by drawing context from confirmations. Google emphasizes that these capabilities are built with robust security protections, including defenses against prompt injection, and auto browse will request confirmation before executing sensitive actions like purchases or social media posts.

The rollout of Gemini in Chrome for Android is slated to begin in the US starting in late June. Devices running Android 12 or later, with a minimum of 4GB of RAM, will be compatible with this new update.
