Gemini

The native Google Gemini app for Mac brings powerful AI assistance directly to your desktop (requires macOS 15+ and Apple Silicon). It is designed to integrate seamlessly into your workflow without the need to switch windows. Users can instantly access a mini-chat using the "Option + Space" shortcut, or open the full chat experience with "Option + Shift + Space".

A standout feature is "Share window," which allows Gemini to see and analyze your active screen to provide instant contextual help—whether you are summarizing documents, explaining complex charts, or debugging code. The app also includes advanced creative tools like Nano Banana for image creation and Veo for video generation. It is free to download from gemini.google/mac and automatically syncs your chat history across mobile, web, and desktop.
