Apple widgets on iPhones and other devices have offered users an easier experience to access certain applications or features. For those looking for a better experience, Google has abandoned the latest update of its Gemini AI on iOS.
The new update adds more to what Gemini has to offer for iPhone users and use widgets to facilitate their AI access.
It seems that Apple should take some notes because his AI assistant, Siri, lacks this particular user experience.
Google Gemini adds new widgets on iOS in the last update
THE Latest version of the Gemini application On the Apple App Store, which is version 1.2025.0762303, is now available, and it provides the latest Google AI capabilities for iOS users.
This update focuses on the addition of six new gemini widgets to iPhones which offer users a shortcut to access the Google AI assistant directly on different access points.
The six new widgets offer a shortcut to various gemini AI functions on the smartphone without having to open the application, create prompts or select a certain feature to get help.
Specifically, 9TO5GOOGLE have reported that Google’s publication notes have highlighted features such as sharing text, images and links directly to Gemini from any application. Gemini’s advanced users, on the other hand, have access to the in -depth research function.
Improvements of the user interface have also been included.
What else to know about widgets
These new Google Gemini widgets can be added to the iOS lock screen or to the home screen that offers easy access to specific functions, and only a tap on said widget is necessary.
On the other hand, the Gemini application also incorporates these new functions into the control center, adding these controls so that users no longer have to go to the home screen or the lock screen to access them.
Google Gemini vs Siri d’Apple: Assistant confrontation
Google and Apple are two of the largest technological companies in the world that have focused a lot on AI, and it seems that Google’s last update prevails over Apple. Indeed, the last AI Gemini is something that is missing from Apple.
Apple has already worked to give Siri the generative upgrade of the AI he needs, the assistant now appreciating more features and the integration of chatgpt. That said, Craig Federighi of Apple himself admitted that Siri was not yet advanced, and this intelligent version of the AI assistant was still under development.
