Features
Gemini combines chat, file and media analysis, web research, image generation, Canvas, Gems, and connected Google apps. Canvas can turn a prompt or Deep Research report into a document, infographic, web app, game, or quiz.
For video, the Gemini app now uses Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash instead of Veo. Omni creates 10-second clips with native audio, accepts up to five photo references, and edits videos through follow-up instructions. Lyria 3.5 turns text or photos into vocal or instrumental tracks up to three minutes long.
The Gemini app context window depends on the plan: Free lists 32k tokens, AI Plus 128k, and AI Pro and Ultra 1 million tokens. Model and feature limits also depend on computational demand.
From 2026-10-13, Gemini 4 Argon, the first published model in the Gemini 4 family, is available in the Gemini app and in AI Mode in Google Search for Google AI Pro and Ultra. Free and AI Plus do not include it. Other models in the family are not published.
