Google is rolling out a major update to the Gemini app, introducing new agentic features, a redesigned interface, and expanded video generation tools as the company pushes Gemini beyond a chatbot into a more proactive AI assistant.
The update comes as Gemini reaches more than 900 million monthly users across 230 countries and more than 70 languages, up from 400 million users last year, according to Google’s announcement. The company said the new release includes Gemini 3.5 Flash, Gemini Omni, Daily Brief, Gemini Spark, a new macOS app, and a redesigned interface called Neural Expressive.
Gemini Spark is the biggest shift in the update. Google described Spark as a 24/7 personal AI agent that can work in the background across Gmail, Docs, Slides, and other Workspace tools, even when a user closes a laptop or locks a phone. The agent can handle recurring tasks, organize information from emails, create project documents, and draft follow up messages under user direction.
Spark is designed to move Gemini from a reactive assistant into an always on agent that can keep working in the background, with beta access planned for US based Google AI Ultra subscribers next week.
Google also introduced Daily Brief, a personalized morning digest that pulls from connected apps such as Gmail and Calendar. The feature is designed to surface urgent updates, upcoming events, and suggested next steps, with users able to refine the brief over time through feedback. Daily Brief begins rolling out to Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers in the US.
