The Android app came out in February, but Apple users only got a limited integration within the main Google app, which doesn't have advanced capabilities such as Gemini Live.

In the AI chatbot world, ubiquity is everything. Companies have raced to build desktop and mobile apps for their bots, in order to both give them new capabilities but also to make sure they’re right in front of your face as often as possible.

Google’s Gemini generative AI assistant has been made available via a dedicated app on the iPhone for the first time. Although Gemini can already be accessed on iPhones via the web, Google said the app will offer a “more streamlined Gemini experience”,

Gemini, which was named Bard up until earlier this year, officially landed as a standalone app on Android back in February. Now, only a few days after a stray report about a dedicated Gemini app landing on iOS did the rounds, the Mountain View, California-based tech giant has officially confirmed its launch.

The standalone Google Gemini app for iPhone is available to download worldwide: Here's what the AI app can do.

The app gives iOS users direct access to Gemini, which was previously accessible only by navigating through the main Google app or a web browser.

Months after launching the Gemini AI app for Android, Google has rolled out the app for iPhones. Google CEO Sundar Pichai made the announcement on X, formerly known as Twitter. He wrote, “The Gemini app is now on iPhone, including Gemini Live in 13 languages (more to come). It’s available in the App Store starting today.”

iPhone owners can access Gemini via the Google app, but a dedicated, standalone app would streamline things significantly, giving iOS users a faster, more direct connection to Google’s advanced AI — without the extra steps.
