Google Workspace Changes

Users can now create, preview, and edit files directly in the Gemini app chat, including slide decks, spreadsheets, documents, and PDFs.

Google is introducing new ways to create and refine files and code in the Gemini app. Users can generate, preview, and edit files right within Gemini app chat—expanding to full screen to type edits directly, highlighting text to ask questions, or having Gemini refine them. PDF preview and editing is supported on both web and mobile, while all other formats (documents, spreadsheets, slide decks, Markdown files, TXT files, and code) are supported on the web only. Users can generate slide decks and open them in Google Slides or download as PPTX/PDF, build and export Google Sheets, and edit documents and PDFs with inline edits on web or full-screen view, plus upload to Drive.

Immersive explorations are now available in the Gemini app, offering an interactive, visual way to explore topics layer-by-layer.

Google is introducing a library of immersive explorations in the Gemini app, giving users an interactive, visual way to explore topics layer-by-layer, from microscopic systems to deep space. Users can access the library in the Gemini student hub by clicking "Try immersive explorations" and will soon be able to access these explorations directly in a chat conversation with Gemini. Each scene unfolds into interactive nodes with guided explanations, allowing users to tap a layer to dig deeper, and audio narration will be added soon. The feature is available on web and mobile in English, Indonesian, Hindi, Brazilian Portuguese, French, and simplified Chinese, with other languages receiving an English-only experience for now.

A new centralized "customize" hub in the Gemini app lets users configure skills and connect apps to tailor how Gemini responds and integrates with tools.

Google has introduced a centralized "customize" hub in the Gemini app, providing a single place to tailor how Gemini responds and connects with tools. Users can configure custom skills and prompt preferences to handle repetitive tasks, preserve tone and voice, or enforce specific response structures, and connect more than 40 external services plus Google apps. The hub is rolling out globally across web, mobile, and desktop for all user tiers, with connected apps and third-party integrations manageable by admins in the Admin console.

Export interactive apps from the Gemini app directly to Google Sites with one click.

You can now export interactive apps built in the Gemini app directly to Google Sites. With one click, your app is added to a new, private site draft — fully interactive and ready to customize. From there, you can add more content, publish the site, and share it just like any other Google Site. This makes it easy to share your creations with team, customers, or students, with no code to copy and nothing to rebuild.
