Google Now Lets Mac Users Talk To Gemini In Virtually Any App

Google announced that Mac users can now talk to Gemini in virtually any app. The feature is available in app version 1.88 and allows users to summon a floating pill interface by long-pressing the Fn key. This system-wide shortcut enables voice input over third-party applications without losing cursor focus or workflow placement. The update includes advanced speech-to-text transcription that removes filler sounds and corrects mid-sentence errors, as well as an opt-in desktop screen reasoning mode that lets Gemini process visual information from highlighted files, documents, or images on the monitor.
