After preview access in the US alone, Google has now expanded the availability of its much-anticipated AI chatbot called Gemini to more than 150 countries for Android users. Indians can now engage with Gemini that comes with improved natural language processing capabilities to enable more meaningful conversations.

iOS users can access Gemini directly from the Google App, via a simple toggle. It’s expected that Google will launch an iOS focussed Gemini app soon.

Requirements For Downloading Gemini App

Gemini is accessible as a standalone Android app for phones with over 4GB RAM and Android 12+. iPhone users can toggle Gemini within the Google app. Currently English, Korean and Japanese are supported as Google gradually onboards more geos and languages.

Enhanced Safeguards as Features Expand

Addressing responsible AI concerns, Google said image upload/generation restrictions are being relaxed cautiously with alignment on ethical refusals. Controls ensure Gemini won’t create inappropriate text/images.

Senior execs also acknowledged user feedback to better distinguish Gemini’s features relative to Google Assistant. More communication on current versus upcoming capabilities is slated to address confusion.

With smart responses on diverse topics, Gemini aims to lend users a fun, quick-witted companion on demand. Its global debut signifies a new frontier for chatbots with Google banking on AI advancements to deliver more enriching, safe digital experiences.
