Google updated the Chrome browser on macOS, Windows, and Chromebook Plus to include Gemini 3’s agent capabilities this month.
Currently available only to AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers, with no set date for general availability, these AI features are on display in a new side panel that lets users multitask across the web, regardless of which tab they are in.
The search giant is also adding the image generator Nano Banana directly into Chrome, allowing users to transform images on the fly without downloading and re-uploading them or opening another tab.
Additionally, Gemini in Chrome supports deeper integrations with apps, such as Gmail, Calendar, YouTube, Maps, Google Shopping, and Google Flights. These features can be enabled in the Connected Apps section of Gemini Settings.
