Google is testing a new image feature for its Gemini AI, and it aims to make working with pictures much easier. This new tool allows users to mark, circle, or draw on images before asking questions. By doing this, Gemini can clearly see which part of the image the user wants to talk about.

The new image feature is currently under testing in the Gemini mobile app and also on the web version. When users upload an image to Gemini, they can now highlight or mark certain areas in the picture. It means users can point to just one ask question about it, if there are many people or objects in one image.

On Android devices, Gemini shows a short message when an image is added, which explains the new markup action. Users can use this tool not only for analysis but also for editing images. Early testing shows that Gemini understands marked areas well, even if it sometimes makes small mistakes.

Google has been working on this feature for the past few months. First, signs of it were found in app updates, and later it appeared in leaks showing Gemini on the web. Now, some users have started to see it live, which means Google is likely testing it more widely.

At the moment, not everyone has access to the image markup feature. Google has not yet confirmed when it will be available to everyone. So stay tuned for more information.

Google is rolling out a big upgrade for Gemini AI, Gemini 2.5 Flash Native Audio, and it’s all about making conversations feel more natural and human. The new update makes voice interactions smoother, smarter, and far less robotic.

The update comes with major improvements in how Gemini handles tasks while you’re talking. Now, the AI helps to recognize when it needs real-time information without breaking the flow of the conversation. Instead of awkward pauses or replies, you will now get a smooth response after this update.

Moreover, it also enhances instruction following. Gemini used to follow developer instructions correctly about 84% of the time, but after the update, it now reaches around 90%. This means it can better understand complex steps and give more accurate and dependable responses.

The update also makes conversations more connected and natural. Gemini can now remember earlier parts of the conversation more effectively. It helps to stay on topic even if the discussion is long.

Google has also added two small but helpful features for Gemini Live. First, it won’t cut you off if you pause while speaking. Second, you can mute your microphone while Gemini is talking so you don’t interrupt them by mistake.

These new improvements are already rolling out. You can experience the updated Gemini 2.5 Flash Native Audio in Gemini Live, Search Live, Google AI Studio, and Vertex AI. With this major upgrade, Google aims to make AI conversations feel more natural and user-friendly.
