You now have access to Google Keep, Tasks extensions on Gemini
Gemini on the web is gaining support for new extensions that will help users get more out of its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot. The web client for the chatbot now supports the Google Keep and Google Tasks apps. These extensions were initially released exclusively for the Pixel 9 series in the Gemini app. However, it appears that the tech giant is now rolling out the feature to more users. Notably, the extensions on the web version of the AI chatbot are available to all users.
Gemini gets support for new extensions
Gadgets 360 staff was able to verify the presence of these extensions on the web version of Gemini. Support for Google Keep and Google Tasks can be seen under the Workspace extension, which also provides access to other apps such as Gmail, Docs, Drive and more.
To activate the extension, users need to open Gemini in the browser. Once on the webpage, users need to click on the settings icon in the bottom left corner. There, users can tap on Extensions, find the Google Workspace option and enable it. However, the extension will only work if the user is logged in to their Google Workspace account in the browser.
Once the extension is activated, users can return to the main interface and type ‘@’ in the text field followed by the name of the extension to use the feature. For example, Google Keep allows users to create notes and lists for different purposes. The process is simple. Users can ask the AI to give a name for the list and the items that go into it.
Users can also add recommendations received by the AI directly to the list. However, Gemini cannot edit, delete, or share an existing note, or add or view images in a note.
Similarly, the Google Tasks extension allows users to use Gemini to add reminders and tasks. By asking for the date, time, and task, the AI can automatically generate a reminder for it. These tasks can also be set during a conversation with the chatbot by asking it to “add a reminder for it.” Gemini can understand the context and add it.
