Google is developing a new image markup tool for Gemini. This tool allows users to draw directly on images. It helps to highlight specific parts. This feature, discovered through an APK teardown of Google app version 16.42.61.sa.arm64 by Android Authority, aims to improve Gemini’s responses by focusing on user-selected areas.
Key Features:
- Image Markup: Draw on images from the gallery or camera before uploading to Gemini
- Specific Queries: Use highlighted sections as the focus for Gemini queries
- Improved Responses: Get more relevant answers based on the selected area
- Nano Banana Integration: Supports image editing tools for erasing unwanted elements
How it Works:
- Users select an image or take a new photo.
- They draw on the image to highlight specific parts.
- Gemini uses the marked areas to provide more accurate responses.
Availability:
- Features spotted in development may not always be released.
- Markup tools likely to be available to beta testers before public release.
This update is part of Google’s ongoing efforts to enhance Gemini’s capabilities, including recent additions like longer voice commands and UI changes
