You can already connect some popular services to the Gemini app. Now, to help you get even more done, we’re also enabling you to connect apps directly in Search.
Starting this week, the feature will gradually roll out in the U.S. You can securely connect and use some popular services directly in AI Mode. Here’s how these integrations in Search can help you manage your everyday tasks more efficiently:
Imagine you’re hosting a barbecue and using AI Mode to create a shopping list. If you connect Instacart, you can add the ingredients directly to your Instacart cart, then check out with just a few taps in its app or on its website.
With Personal Intelligence and the apps you connect, Search can provide answers that are better tailored to your needs.
Or, if you’re working on a project that requires design concepts—such as creating a flyer—you can ask Canva to show you a selection of templates.
Want the perfect soundtrack for your next gathering? Use AI Mode to create a playlist, save it instantly to YouTube Music, then press play and start enjoying the party.
