No matter how many dedicated apps you have installed on your PC, you probably live most of your life in the browser.

Alongside auto browse, Google today announced a number of additional updates to Gemini in Chrome, including the new side panel.

Google today announced “Chrome auto browse” as a “powerful agentic experience that handles multi-step chores on your behalf.”

Google today also announced a “new Google Photos picker in Gmail” for iOS.

Gmail’s filter system has been a strong way to quiet the noise of constant promotional emails and updates, but it might be broken. We are seeing several reports of Google’s email service not filtering emails as inboxes blow up.
