Google Launches Dedicated Gemini App for iOS
Earlier this year, Google introduced the Gemini app for Android, allowing users to switch from Google Assistant to Gemini as their default assistant. Initially, iOS users could access Gemini only through the official Google app. However, following valuable user feedback, Google has now launched a standalone Gemini app specifically for iOS devices.
Compatibility and Language Support
The official Gemini app is designed for all iPhones running iOS 16.0 or newer. It supports a vast array of languages, catering to a diverse global audience:
Supported Languages: English, Arabic, Bengali, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Marathi, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Traditional Chinese, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
Features of the Gemini iOS App
The Gemini app for iOS offers both free and premium features. By subscribing to Gemini Advanced, users can access advanced functionalities, including the powerful Gemini Live model, along with tools for Gmail and Google Docs. Gemini Live enhances the user experience by providing a more fluid voice interface, perfect for brainstorming and exploring new ideas. New users can enjoy a one-month free trial of Gemini Advanced directly within the app.
Access for Work Accounts
Users with Google Work accounts should note that while access to Gemini Advanced may be restricted, they can still utilize the Gemini app on iOS, provided their Workspace administrator enables access to both Gemini Apps and Google Assistant.
How to Download the Gemini App
The official Google Gemini app is available on the Apple App Store. To download, users must ensure their Google account is set to a minimum age of 13 years.
Potential Impact on iOS Users
The launch of the Gemini app on iOS represents a pivotal move by Google to enhance accessibility of its AI technologies to over a billion iOS users. With its intuitive design and robust capabilities, the Gemini app is poised to become a favored AI solution for many iPhone users.
