Compare Google Gemini with other Apps

Gemini is packed with things you can do:

• Get help with homework
• Make images
• Plan trips
• Connects with Google services like Search and Maps

If you pay for Pro or Ultra, you get even more, like video generation and deep research.

But not everything works everywhere. Some features, like video-to-talk, didn’t show up on all our devices. And if you’re used to the old Google Assistant, you might miss a few things. Still, the basics work well and Gemini keeps getting better. Just check if the features you want are available for your phone.

We think Gemini’s features are strong, but we’d like to see them work the same for everyone.

Gemini runs smoothly.

• App opens fast
• Answers come quickly
• No crashes or slowdowns in our tests

Some features aren’t on every device yet, but that’s not a speed issue. For what’s there, everything works as it should.

Gemini looks and feels like a Google app. It’s clean, modern, and easy to use. We liked how simple it was to find what we needed. The colors and icons make it friendly, and everything loads fast.

We didn’t run into any design problems, and most people seem to like how it looks. We do wish there were more ways to customize things, but overall, it’s a nice app to use.

Gemini gives you a lot for free:

• Main features work without paying
• Extras like video generation need Pro or Ultra
• Most people won’t need to upgrade right away

The free version is generous, and the paid plans are fair for what you get. There are no hidden fees.

Gemini is easy to get started with.

• Menus are clear
• Main features are easy to find
• No manual needed

Some features only work on certain phones or in some countries, which can be confusing. We also wish you could talk to Gemini without always opening the app. But for most things, it’s simple and quick.

Gemini uses Google’s usual privacy and security rules.

• Your data is handled by Google’s privacy policy
• You can check the details in the app
• No privacy problems or weird permissions in our tests

Like other Google apps, some data is collected to make things work better. If you care a lot about privacy, it’s worth reading the policy. We like that you can change some privacy settings, but this isn’t an offline or anonymous tool.
