Google has introduced "Scheduled Actions" to its Gemini app, a feature aimed at enhancing user productivity by automating tasks. This new capability, announced during Google I/O and now rolling out to select Android and iOS users, allows Gemini to handle recurring or time-specific tasks without repeated prompts. Users can instruct Gemini to perform actions such as generating weekly blog brainstorms, delivering daily news digests, or setting one-time event reminders. With Scheduled Actions, Gemini is evolving to become a more proactive AI assistant, providing users with a hands-off experience.
The Scheduled Actions feature enables users to automate prompts within the Gemini app. Examples include setting up a daily calendar and email summary, receiving blog post ideas on a recurring schedule, or getting reminders for specific appointments. Once a task is scheduled, it can be easily managed from the Scheduled Actions page within the Gemini settings. This functionality positions Gemini as a more competitive alternative to AI technologies with similar features, such as ChatGPT, by offering a personalized experience to help users "stay informed, inspired, and on track."
Google is also expanding its AI capabilities in other areas. AI Mode in Google Search now displays charts and tables, particularly for finance-related queries drawing data from Google Finance. Additionally, users with Google AI Pro, Ultra, or some Workspace plans can use voice commands to set "scheduled actions" within the Gemini app. These scheduled tasks are automatically integrated into Google Calendar or Gmail. This new feature offers a more comprehensive AI experience.
