Google is planning to make Gemini part of all its services. Just a few days ago it appeared that Google’s AI would arrive in Drive, and now everything indicates that it will also arrive in Gmail. The Gemini integration in Gmail has a specific mission: to facilitate the exchange of emails.

Yes, everything points to AI-written emails being a thing of the past. This move by Google comes as no surprise, and the commitment to AI is clear. 

Android Authority found hints of Google’s plans a few weeks ago in the latest version of Gmail for Android. What was initially rumored has been confirmed, as Google has started rolling out Gemini to Gmail. However, to access this new feature, you’ll need to have the latest version of Gmail.

While Gemini already offers a wide range of possibilities when it comes to activation in  Gmail, the integration is now much greater. So far, Google’s AI has been able to:

Create a list of next steps.

Suggest an answer

 Now, it comes with a new feature: Gemini offers a shortcut that creates an email with the generated response, making it easier to respond to your messages directly using AI.

It is clear that Google wants its AI to offer a wider range of possibilities and to be useful in everyday life. As we mentioned at the beginning, it is necessary to have the latest version of Gmail, which is 2025.01.05.715468168, to enjoy this feature.

You will likely need to visit the Google Play Store to check for a pending update for Gmail  so you can get the latest version of the app. It is important to be patient, as this may be a gradual release, so Google will be rolling it out gradually.
