You can now upload audio files to the Gemini app

The Gemini app finally supports audio uploads on Android, iOS, and the web for expanded file analysis options.

Open Gemini’s ‘plus’ menu for “Files” (mobile) or “Upload files” (web) and select any audio file: MP3, M4A, WAV, etc.

Google says “total audio length can be up to 10 minutes” for free users, while it’s 3 hours for Google AI Pro or Google AI Ultra subscribers.

This can be useful for transcribing audio, with video previously supported. It’s a great quality-of-life improvement, with Google noting today how this has been a #1 request.

This joins video, which can be up to 5 minutes (free) or 1 hour (paid) and up to 2 GB in size, with “all other supported file types can be up to 100 MB.”

Additionally:

  • One code folder, or one GitHub repository, with up to 5,000 files and a maximum size of 100 MB, can be added to a chat.
  • ZIP files can contain up to 10 files.

In all, you can upload up to 10 files of any format.
