Changelog Update
What: Starting today, Gemini can now use your Search history to give you even more helpful and personalized responses. When you select "Personalization (experimental)" from the model drop-down, Gemini will analyze your prompt and see if your past searches can make the answer better. This means you get answers that are more relevant to you, saving you time and effort. Users have told us this is really helpful for brainstorming, getting recommendations, and quickly finding things you've searched for before. We're launching Gemini with personalization as an experimental feature, available on the web today, and gradually rolling out on mobile. It's available in over 40 languages and in the majority of countries around the world. The experience is not yet available to Google Workspace or Education users. Future usage limits may apply.
You're in control: Built with privacy and control in mind, your data is safe, secure, and controlled by you. When you choose Gemini with personalization, you'll be asked to grant permission for it to access your Search history. This is entirely optional—you can choose to opt in or out. You can also revoke access to your Search history at any time through a banner link provided before entering your prompt. You can view and manage your Search history anytime.
Why: We envision an AI assistant that truly understands you — your interests, your hobbies, your unique context — to deliver an experience that's tailored to you. Now, with an understanding of your past searches, Gemini doesn't just give you answers; it evolves with you, sparking new ideas effortlessly and building on previous discoveries with personalized insights.
