Google has been constantly adding new extensions to Gemini, its AI powered digital assistant. From Spotify to WhatsApp, here's what you can do using Gemini's ever-growing list of supported extensions

Following OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google jumped on the generative AI bandwagon with Bard, its AI-powered digital assistant that will eventually replace the trusty Google Assistant. Later renamed to Gemini, the digital assistant is powered by a large language model by the same name, enabling users to perform a wide range of actions like writing text, summarising documents, analysing and generating images to name a few.

While several Google Assistant features are already available on Gemini, some of them work a bit differently as they are available in the form of Extensions, which users may have to manually enable. For those wondering, Gemini Extensions allow users to ask Gemini to do certain actions in apps like Google Maps, Phone, Spotify and more. If you are already using Gemini and want to make the most out of the AI-powered digital assistant, here are some Gemini Extensions you can try right now

Google Hotels

If you are going to some place, this extension can help you quickly find hotels according to your budget and preference. You can also ask the AI chatbot to suggest things like a packing list, where to go and what to eat.

Google Flights

Gemini can not only help you find the best flight tickets on your preferred date but can also help you make an itinerary of the places you can visit or should check out during your visit. This is really helpful when you are planning a trip with friends or family and have no idea where to go or stay there.

Google Maps

The Google Maps Gemini extension is super handy if you are looking for general and particular places nearby. As you can see in the prompt above, Google Maps can help you find cafes where you can eat and even suggests things of snacks you can carry while trekking or hiking.

Google Home

The Google Home Gemini extension is still in public preview, so you will have to join the program before it is available on your device. Once done, Gemini can help you control your smart devices and unlike Google Assistants, understands complex commands like “Turn on the light and set the brightness to 10 per cent.”

How to enable Google Gemini Extensions?

To enable Gemini Extensions, launch Gemini on your device and tap on the profile picture icon from the top right. On the menu that appears, click on ‘Extensions’, where you will see a list of available extensions. Now, enable the extension by tapping the toggle and you are done.
