  • Gemini will soon integrate with Google Photos, allowing natural language queries to surface relevant user photos.
  • Google has shared details about this integration, giving examples of what you can ask Gemini.
  • Thanks to the integration, Gemini will be able to find photos based on faces, locations, descriptions, and more with natural language commands.

Google recently announced that Gemini would soon be able to tap into Google Photos, letting the AI chatbot answer natural language queries about your stored images. This would be possible through Gemini Extensions, which have recently been renamed to just “apps.” While we are still waiting for the feature to roll out widely, Google has now shared more details on how Gemini’s Google Photos integration will work.

Through a new support document, Google is laying out how you can use Google Photos in conjunction with the Gemini app. You’ll need apps for both Gemini and Google Photos installed on your device and have Gemini Apps Activity turned on, as that’s the requirement for getting Apps in Gemini to work.
