Google brings Gemini to Windows desktops

Google launched the Gemini app for Windows, available globally on Windows 10 and 11, with an Alt + Space shortcut, Gemini Spark for multi-step tasks, and Gmail/Drive access, the launch announcement says. It also adds image and video creation in a native desktop shell, but publishes no task-success or latency number. Desktop teams should test permissions and workflow fit before standardizing, alongside the archive’s Gemini price-cut analysis.
