Google announces Gemini 3.1, new Chrome for Android toolbar button
Google just announced Gemini 3.1, the model powering Gemini in Chrome for Android.
Rolling out next month, it'll let you quickly summarize articles, break down topics, or pull info from any web page, all with a tap on a new toolbar button.
Gemini adds Nano Banana Auto Browse
Gemini isn't just about reading: it works with Gmail, Calendar, and Keep to save recipes or create events straight from your browser.
There's also Nano Banana for turning web content into visuals and Auto Browse for automating tasks like booking parking (with your OK first).
You'll need Android 12 or later, at least 4GB of RAM, and US English settings.
The rollout starts in late June for select US users; Auto Browse is only for AI Pro or Ultra subscribers at launch.
Google says security matches those of desktop Chrome.
