September 10, 2026: Gemini app for Windows
The Gemini desktop app launched on Windows (Alt+Space to summon), with connections to Gmail and Google Drive for summarizing documents and finding information.

Hold Fn to dictate into any active window; Gemini transcribes to clean text at your cursor, and can use screen context (rewrite highlighted text, extract from local files).
What this means for your agents: Approving or redirecting an agent’s draft becomes a spoken sentence, not a typing session.
July 21, 2026: Gemini 3.6 Flash for all app users
An upgraded Flash model for everyday tasks, available globally in the model picker, positioned for multi-step projects with Canvas.
What this means for your agents: The fast/cheap tier got better at exactly the multi-step work agents do - re-run your agent’s weekly task on 3.6 Flash before paying for Pro.

May 19, 2026: Gemini Spark launch: a 24/7 personal AI agent
