Chromecast is officially dead
Google's Chromecast line has long been a popular choice if you want to replace your smart TV experience or turn any TV into a smart TV.
The Google app for iPhone is about to become a little less useful as Google recently removed access to Gemini AI from that app.
Google requires users to download the Gemini app
Google recently sent out emails to users to inform them of the change. Instead of the Google app, the company is asking users to download the free, standalone Gemini app from the iOS App Store.
If you try to access Gemini through the main Google app, you'll see a message saying "Gemini is no longer available in the Google app ." You'll also see download links for the Gemini app.
Using the standalone Gemini iPhone app, which officially launches in November 2024, you can take advantage of a variety of features. Some of these include the ability to interact with Gemini via text, voice chat, or camera. You can also connect Gemini to other Google apps like Search, YouTube, Gmail, and Google Home.
Compared to many other chatbots, Google's service is still underrated - there are a number of reasons why you should give Gemini a try.
One of the most popular ways to use the Gemini app on iPhone is Gemini Live . While Gemini is free to access, you can also subscribe to Gemini Advanced directly through the app for $19.99/month. Along with access to the most capable AI models, you also get priority access to new features. It’s part of the Google One package, which offers Gemini in other Google apps like Gmail, along with 2TB of Google Drive storage.
Is this decision the right move?
Google's decision to remove access from its flagship iOS app is a bold and somewhat controversial one. Many people use Gemini from within the Google app so they don't have to bother downloading another app.
But it's likely that Google wants to quickly add features to Gemini through a dedicated app. It's also easier to attract subscribers with a standalone app.
While many people switched to the Gemini app for their iPhones when it was released, some users may have been left behind by Google. And in today's competitive AI landscape, it's a puzzling choice.
