They are called smartphones for a reason. The main gadget in our lives is already very clever, bringing a powerful computer to our pockets, but if you use an iPhone there’s now a new way to get hold of some brainy AI features that previously were easier to come by for Android fans.

Google has released its Gemini app for the iPhone that brings Google’s artificial intelligence smarts to Apple phones. Google used to lean on the Google Assistant branding but recently it has pivoted to call many of its AI tools Gemini.

This new assistant aims to give you “easy access to features that help improvelearning, creativity and productivity,” according to Google.

“iPhone users can now talk to Gemini in a conversational manner, including interrupting to ask questions or change the topic,” the firm said. “It’s great for when you want to practice for an upcoming interview, ask for advice on things to do in a new city, or brainstorm and develop creative ideas.”

You can think of Gemini as a way of talking or typing to Google search, where the information given to you is much more conversational, allowing you to search further into a query while the technology can remember the context of your previous searches. This is meant to not only make it easier to search, but give you better results.

Signing into your Google account when you use the Gemini app opens up access to your data from Gmail, Photos, Calendar and other Google services you can also search for personal information such as events, flights, and other information you won’t find in a traditional Google search.

“Gemini makes learning easier, enabling you to ask questions about any subject and get tailored study plans,” Google said. “Gemini can also provide custom, step-by-step guidance that adapts to your learning style, and you can even test your knowledge with quizzes. For example, you can attach a complex diagram and ask Gemini to quiz you on it.”

As you can see, some of these new features are slightly experimental.

You can use Gemini to create unique images using simple prompts thanks to Google’s Imagen 3 image generation tech, while you can also rely on it to help you compose texts and emails by editing your drafts, changing the tone, or adding new information.

These Gemini tools are built into new Android phones that necessarily run on Google’s Android software (even though there is an app too). By having a standalone app for iOS, Google is making sure iPhone users don’t miss out. The app is free to use, but to get the most out of Gemini there is an optional monthly subscription fee.
