  • Google is integrating some of Gmail’s AI features directly into the Gemini Assistant.
  • This would allow users to access features like email summarization and reply suggestions within Gemini itself.
  • Access to these AI tools currently requires Google Workspace Labs enrollment or a Google One AI Premium subscription.

Google has already introduced several AI features in Gmail for both desktop and mobile users. These include the ability to summarize long emails, suggest the next steps, and draft email replies with just a few clicks. Now, it seems Google is taking it a step further, allowing you to access some of these Gmail-specific features directly through the Gemini Assistant window.

The Android Authority team activated this new feature in the Google App for Android (version 15.37.41.29.arm64). When users activate Gemini (by pressing the power button or swiping the screen corners) while an email is open on the screen, a specific set of suggestion chips appears. These include options like summarizing the email, suggesting a reply, and listing action items. Essentially, these are the same suggestion chips that Gmail users have been seeing on desktop and mobile, but now integrated into the Gemini Assistant interface.
