Ahead of I/O 2026, Google continues to roll out Gemini app features, with some users now seeing a “Thinking level” option.
In the model picker, you’ll see a new “Thinking level” menu at the bottom of the sheet. This only appears when selecting Fast (Gemini 3 Flash) or Gemini 3.1 Pro, with Thinking excluded. Your options are “Standard” and “Extended.”
So far, Thinking level is seeing a limited rollout. This matches how Google AI Studio offers Low, Medium, and High thinking levels.
Meanwhile, the Gemini app is preparing to add more integrations with third-party apps. At the moment, third-party apps include @GitHub, @OpenStax, @Spotify, and @WhatsApp.
Support documents show that @Canva, @Instacart, and @OpenTable are coming. This is not yet rolled out.
