Google Gemini now works across multiple apps in one prompt

WITH today’s updateGemini is able to perform more complicated multimodal tasks. You can ask it to find a dog-friendly Italian restaurant and send it to a friend, or view your NFL team’s upcoming games and add them to your calendar, all with one prompt.

Multi-app support relies on existing Gemini app extensions, which include a wide range of Google apps and narrow third-party options, including WhatsApp and Spotify. Today’s update adds Samsung’s own apps to the list for S25 users – including Samsung Calendar, Notes, Reminders and Clock – but other multi-extension tooltips are now available to all Gemini users on the web and on Android and iOS devices.

With all these improvements, Samsung has made Gemini the default virtual assistant on the up-to-date S25 phones, finally replacing its own Bixby assistant. You can still access Bixby on phones – the app comes pre-installed – but by default, a long press on the power button will now open Gemini.

The circle to search is also getting improvements. It will be able to automatically recognize phone numbers, email addresses, and URLs so you can interact with them more easily. AI overviews in search results have also been expanded to support more types of visual search results, increasing the likelihood that using Circle to Search on an image of a place, piece of art or object will generate an AI overview in the results.
