Our vision for Gemini is to build an assistant that truly understands you—one that evolves with your needs rather than giving one-size-fits-all answers. Today we’re introducing new features designed to make Gemini feel tailored to you, not just a generic tool that works the same for everyone.
Use your previous chats to get more personalized responses
Today we’re bringing our “Memories” option to the UK, allowing Gemini to learn from your past conversations over time. When this setting is turned on, Gemini remembers key details and preferences you’ve shared, leading to more natural and relevant conversations, as if you’re collaborating with a partner who’s already up and running.
Here’s how this personal context can bring a conversation to life:
- You’ve previously discussed the evolution of characters’ powers in your favorite cartoon. Now, if you ask Gemini to “brainstorm a birthday party theme that’s unique to me,” it can suggest a party based on your favorite character, complete with themed food and a custom photo booth with props.
- You have previously asked Gemini for summaries of some of the latest non-fiction books recommended by BookTok. When you ask Gemini to recommend a book you’d like, Gemini can suggest books with similar themes to those you’ve discussed before, and even provide popular quotes for your social posts.
- You previously used Gemini to brainstorm ideas for a YouTube channel focusing on Japanese culture. When you ask for “new content ideas based on my interests,” Gemini might suggest a video theme like “My First Time Trying…” where you film yourself trying a new Japanese food, a traditional craft (like origami or a tea ceremony), or even a new game from Japan.
We’re rolling out this feature starting today, with availability to all users in the coming weeks. This setting is enabled by default to help Gemini give you more relevant answers, but you remain in control and can turn this setting on or off at any time. To adjust your settings, simply go to your Settings in the Gemini app and select “Personal Context” and then “Memory”. As before, you can manage and delete your conversations in Gemini Apps Activity.
Bring your AI memories and chat history to Gemini
We believe that the most useful AI assistant is one that is personalized to you and understands your preferences and past conversations. But if you’re curious to try another option, start over with an assistant who doesn’t know you can feel intimidating.
That’s why we’re introducing new, easy-to-use switching tools for all consumer accounts—so you can easily bring your memories, context, and chat history from other AI apps right into Gemini.
Teach Gemini what matters
Starting today, our new memory import feature can easily bring an understanding of your key preferences, relationships and personal context directly into Gemini. Once you import these memories, Gemini will understand the same key facts you’ve shared with other apps, such as your interests, your sibling’s name, or where you grew up. Instead of starting over, you can quickly get Gemini up to speed on what matters most to you.
To bring your memory from other AI apps into Gemini, just go to your Settings and select the new import option. You’ll get a suggested copy and paste prompt into your current AI app. When your other app generates a summary of your preferences, simply copy that response and paste it back into Gemini. Gemini will instantly analyze the information and securely store these details in your Gemini context, ready to be used in your next chat.
