Google's Gemini app has added iMessage integration, letting iPhone users in India pull the assistant directly into their Messages threads for drafting replies, summarizing long chats and turning scattered conversations into actions. It follows Gemini's earlier WhatsApp hooks and lands as Apple pushes its own Siri AI rebuild, putting Google inside the one app Indian founders, sales teams and D2C sellers never close.

⚡ Fast Takeaways:
  • Core Update: Gemini can now read, summarize and draft replies inside iMessage threads on iPhone, turning a chat app into a working AI surface.
  • Key Metrics / Specs: Works with Google's Gemini models and supports the 9 Indian languages already live in the Gemini app.
  • Access & Availability: Rolling out first to iPhone users on supported iOS builds, with India included from day one.
  • Watch The Privacy Line: Chat access is opt-in, and Indian users should audit which threads they expose before switching it on.
