What you need to know
- Gemini can now remember where you left important items, even without a tracker.
- You can tell Gemini where you stashed an item or snap a quick photo, and it logs the detail directly to Find Hub.
- Then, ask Gemini where your item is later, or view all saved locations in Find Hub’s new memory tab.
In a noteworthy enhancement unveiled during Google’s September Android Drop, the Find Hub feature has received a significant upgrade. This new functionality allows Gemini, Google’s AI assistant, to recall the locations of important items, even in the absence of a Bluetooth tracker. Users can now simply inform Gemini of where they placed an item, enhancing the ease of locating everyday essentials.
For instance, a user might say, “Hey Google, remember in Find Hub that I put my passport in my bedroom drawer.” This command can be supplemented with a photo for additional clarity, which Gemini will log directly into Find Hub. Later, if the user needs to locate the item, they can either ask Gemini directly or navigate to the new memory tab within Find Hub to view all saved locations.
This feature is part of a broader update that includes various enhancements, such as Motion Assist, designed to help mitigate motion sickness, along with improvements to Google Messages. However, for those who often find themselves searching for misplaced items, the introduction of this Gemini capability stands out as one of the most impactful updates in this release.
