Google's powerful AI tools are now available in India and more than 150 other countries.

The AI-powered chatbot was launched on February 8 specifically for Android users.

The Gemini app is accessible in English, Korean, and Japanese languages, catering to a diverse group of users.

Notably, there is not a separate Gemini app for iOS users. However, iPhone users can access Gemini through a toggle within the Google app.

To use the Gemini app, Android users need a phone running on at least Android 12 or newer versions of Google's operating system.

Similarly, iPhone users with iOS 16 or later can interact with the chatbot using the Google app, activating the feature through a toggle in the top-right corner.

The global rollout of Gemini began on Thursday and is expected to continue over the next few days, ensuring that users worldwide can easily integrate the chatbot into their digital experiences.

Users need to be signed in to a personal Google Account to enable the feature.

Jack Krawczyk, Senior Director of Product at Google overseeing Gemini, addressed some user concerns.

He mentioned that restrictions on image uploading and generation were being relaxed but emphasised responsible handling of refusals for both images and text, as per the report.
