What this answers
- What is Connected Apps in Gemini?
- A Gemini feature, rolling out from September 23, 2026, that lets users link third-party apps — including Adobe, Airtable, Linear and Peloton — directly into a chat via settings or @ mentions, without switching tabs, per Google.
Google is rolling out Connected Apps to Gemini, letting users link third-party apps directly into chat instead of switching tabs, per its September 23, 2026 blog post. The first 14 apps span productivity (Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI, Zoho), creativity (Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace, Webflow) and lifestyle (apartments.com, Experian, Peloton, SeatGeek); users activate them in Gemini settings or with @ mentions. Google’s post names no subscription-tier or geographic limits, and states no criteria for which apps were chosen or whether more will be added.
Why it matters: It extends the same agentic-reach pattern behind Gemini's Chrome auto-browse and Business Profile editing — folding task apps into chat — with no stated criteria for which apps qualify or whether more are coming.
