Ask Gemini in Drive now available on mobile
In April, we announced the general availability of Ask Gemini in Drive on the web. We’re now bringing this feature to the Drive Android and iOS apps.
Ask Gemini in Drive offers you a dedicated, immersive workspace designed for deep focus. You can now engage in high-context, multi-turn conversations to efficiently explore and understand content across Drive, other Workspace apps, and the web.
Key features include:
- Dedicated conversations: Engage in focused discussions about specific sets of files and folders. By grounding your questions in the relevant content, you get more precise, actionable answers.
- Persistent conversation history: Easily pick up where you left off. Your past chats are saved, allowing you to quickly revisit previous insights about specific folders or projects without starting over.
- Secure and compliant: Ask Gemini in Drive is built directly into the Drive architecture, it never copies or replicates your files. It honors your existing data protection and security controls, including access permissions, DLP policies, and IRM, ensuring Gemini only accesses content you are authorized to see.
This feature will roll out in English and an additional 28 languages over the next several weeks.
