Gemini Live’s camera and screen sharing
Gemini Live, a popular chat software, is now free on Android and iOS and supports camera and screen sharing. It provides new methods to seek assistance, such as troubleshooting faulty equipment or receiving personalised purchasing recommendations. Gemini Live will become increasingly integrated into daily life by establishing events in Google Calendars and giving up-to-date information from Google Maps. The software will also work with Google Calendar, Tasks, and Keep, with other Google ecosystem integrations coming. Users may modify these app connections and their associated information at any time using the app’s settings.
Imagen 4 and Veo 3
Imagen 4 is a professional presentation tool that provides lifelike realism and enhanced text and font outputs. It is offered to consumers through the Gemini app. In contrast, Veo 3 is a one-of-a-kind program that allows users to create video sequences, city noises, and character conversations from basic text instructions. It creates immersive experiences through native audio creation and is accessible in the Gemini app for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the United States.
Deep Research
Starting today, users can get a customised Deep Research report that combines public data with private PDFs and photos to provide an extensive understanding of trends. This saves time and shows bonds that could have gone unnoticed otherwise. Market researchers may submit internal sales information to compare with public trends, and academics can access difficult-to-find journal publications. The program will eventually enable research across Google Drive and Gmail for fast information access.
Enhanced Canvas
Canvas, a creative space within the Gemini app, has been updated with Gemini 2.5 models, allowing users to create interactive infographics, quizzes, and podcast-style audio overviews in 45 languages. The 2.5 Pro model facilitates the quick translation of complicated ideas into workable code, decreasing the barrier to software development and speeding up prototyping of new concepts. This novel technique dramatically reduces the barrier to software development.
Gemini in Chrome on desktop
Starting tomorrow, Google AI Pro and Ultra members in the United States will be able to use Gemini in Chrome on desktop for simple explanation or summarisation of complicated webpage content. The initial version will eventually function across many tabs and explore websites on your behalf.
Interactive quizzes
Gemini is implementing interactive quizzes to make learning easier. Users may construct a thermodynamics practice quiz with fast feedback and a personalised follow-up quiz. The functionality is available to all Gemini users globally, both on desktop and mobile. College students in the United States, Brazil, Indonesia, Japan, and the United Kingdom may obtain a free Gemini upgrade for the whole academic year, with additional nations to follow soon. This novel technique seeks to transform students’ learning experiences from weaknesses to strengths.
Two new subscriptions
Google is launching two subscriptions: Google Al Pro and Google Al Ultra. The Pro package costs $19.99 per month and includes a suite of Al tools, like Flow and NotebookLM, as well as additional features and greater rate restrictions. The Ultra plan gives you early access to intriguing experimental Al products, as well as the most powerful models with the greatest rate limitations. The Ultra package provides Gemini app power users with special features and early access to the top models, such as Veo3 and the impending 2.5 Pro Deep Think mode.

Upgrading to the Ultra plan also provides early access to Agent Mode, an experimental feature that will soon be accessible on desktop. Agent Mode combines advanced features such as live web surfing, in-depth research, and smart integrations with Google applications, allowing Gemini to do complicated tasks with little supervision. Google AI Ultra is offered in the United States for $249.99 a month, with first-time customers receiving a 50% discount for the first three months.
