- Google is working on adding a new fab in the Messages app.
- The new button will allow the user to start a conversation with Gemini directly.
- Beta users should see the Gemini fab appear soon.
Since early this year, users of the Google Messages app have been able to chit-chat with Gemini. However, it takes a few steps before you can start a conversation with the large language model (LLM). Google is planning on streamlining the process by adding a new fab that takes you directly to the chatbot.
In what seems to be an effort to put Gemini front and center, the Messages app could soon get a new fab that directly opens the Gemini conversation screen. We discovered this new button in app version messages.android_20240610_01_RC00.
