Gmail for iOS Enhances User Experience with AI Assistance
Google is rolling out iOS support for its Gmail Q&A feature, which gives users a Gemini-powered AI assistant to help manage their inbox. The Gemini side panel for Gmail was introduced to web and Android devices earlier this year and can potentially provide an easier way to locate specific information buried within emails and Google Drive.
Features of the Gmail AI Assistant
- Users can ask the Gmail chatbot questions about the contents of their inbox or connected Google Drive.
- The AI can help find lost contact information or company data.
- It summarizes emails around a particular topic and surfaces unread messages.
- Can answer general questions from Google search directly within the inbox.
Availability for Users
Like the web and Android versions, the Gmail Q&A feature on iOS is only available to Google One AI Premium subscribers or Google Workspace accounts with Gemini Business, Enterprise, Education, or Education Premium add-ons. Google says it’s rolling out to those groups now, but it may take a couple of weeks to appear.
