Google Launches Gemini Mobile App in India, Now Supporting 9 Indian Languages

Google has officially launched its AI mobile app, Gemini, in India, approximately four months after its initial release in the U.S. This version supports nine Indian languages in addition to English, enhancing accessibility for a diverse user base.

The Gemini mobile app now offers support for the following Indian languages: Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu. This allows users to communicate with the AI using their preferred language, whether by typing or speaking, according to Google's announcement on Tuesday.

Google confirmed that the Gemini app operates on Gemini 1.0 Pro as its standard version. Users can upgrade to the Gemini Advanced experience for a premium, which utilizes Gemini 1.5 Pro technology. This advanced option features a 1 million token context window, enabling the app to handle vast amounts of information—from 1,500-page documents to intricate data analysis tasks. Additionally, Gemini Advanced supports all nine Indian languages available in the app.

In conjunction with the launch in India, Google has also introduced the Gemini app in Turkey, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.

Android users in the region can easily download the Gemini app from the Play Store and set it as their default AI assistant within the Google Assistant app. iPhone users in India can anticipate access to Gemini through the Google app in the upcoming weeks.

At its I/O developer conference in May, Google showcased plans for deeper integration of its Gemini AI assistant across various applications, including Gmail, Google Messages, and YouTube, as well as within the Android operating system. Many of these features will roll out to compatible devices in the coming months. Notably, Google is launching the Gemini integration in Google Messages for English-speaking Indian users starting today.

Originally unveiled in February in the U.S., the Gemini mobile app subsequently made its way to several European countries, including Germany, France, Italy, Sweden, and the U.K. In April, the app expanded its language support to include Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Portuguese to cater to an even broader audience.
