• Weekly rollups of new local cafes and restaurants to check out during the weekend.

When each response is ready, Gemini will notify you:

  • Tip: You can turn notifications for Gemini Apps on or off in your device’s app notification settings.

Gemini Apps may use your location to provide more relevant responses to your prompts. For example, to respond to prompts about the weather, Gemini Apps need to know your location.

If you schedule an action that’s related to your location, Gemini Apps will use the location where you created the action for all future responses. To schedule an action for a different location, you can either create a new scheduled action or update your existing action to specify a location.

Learn more about the location information Gemini Apps collect, why, and how it is used.

If you aren’t receiving responses for a scheduled action, it may have been automatically turned off due to inactivity. You can turn the scheduled action on again at any time by viewing the chat.
