Gemini

Gemini for Home is the umbrella term for Google’s renewed smart home effort with several distinct aspects: app, camera, and voice assistant. From what the company has shared so far, here’s when Gemini for Home is rolling out.

The Google Home team is answering the “top questions” it has received from users since Wednesday’s Gemini for Home launch. 

Alongside Google’s Gemini for Home push this week, the company also unveiled its Google Home Speaker, but it’s not coming until next year. That “delay” has drawn some criticism, but it’s actually a good thing.

ADT has confirmed that its subscribers will have to wait a bit longer to access Google Home’s new Gemini features, but nothing is breaking for the time being.

Every single Home speaker and Nest smart display that Google released in the last decade will support Gemini. However, Gemini Live requires newer devices and a subscription.

Google Home’s Gemini revamp is here and, for Nest Cam owners, it means getting better notifications, the ability to search through footage, and more. Here’s what to expect.

Gemini for Home does more than just replace Google Assistant on smart speakers and displays. Featuring a rebuilt Home architecture, it adds intelligence to cameras and makes possible a redesigned Home app for Android and iOS. 

Following Gmail and Docs, Gemini is coming to Google Drive for Android and iOS. This integration lets users “ask questions about their files and folders and receive conversational responses.”

We previously spotted that the Google Home app was getting a redesign with “Ask Home” and it’s now beginning to roll out for iPhone users ahead of the October 1 announcement.

Google has been teasing the debut of Gemini for Google Home for an October 1 unveiling, and now a refreshed Google Home logo has also surfaced.

Google today updated the 2.5 Flash model available in the Gemini app across three areas.

As promised, Gemini is officially launching on Google TV today, but most users will still have to wait a little bit longer.

Gemini in Chrome for Mac and Windows will no longer require an AI Pro or AI Ultra subscription, while Google today also announced a number of upgrades.

As previewed in June, Google now lets you share Gemini Gems with other users.

It’s iPhone 17 review week, and word on the street is the base model is the one to buy this year. Pitting platforms against each other, Apple has a pretty distinct advantage over the Pixel 10 from the jump, with the iPhone 17 arriving with 256GB in its base $800 configuration, while Google delivers just 128GB for the same price. It’s easy enough to see this as a miscalculation on Google’s part — one it can rectify with next year’s Pixel 11 — but the Pixel 10’s status as a device “designed for AI” really feels at odds with this single decision.

After a mathematics win in July, Gemini 2.5 Deep Think has now earned a gold-medal level performance in competitive coding.

As previewed in April, Google Meet is rolling out an “Ask Gemini” capability for Workspace users. It’s framed as a “personal in-meeting advisor.”

Following the web, the Gemini app on Android and iOS has rolled out the “Tools” redesign of the prompt bar and suggestions in recent days.

The Nano Banana image editing model has been a hit for Google, and presumably the reason that Gemini for iPhone is the top free app in the US App Store.

Following the web, Gemini is beginning to roll out the latest prompt bar redesign on Android and iOS.
