JAKARTA - In a recent APK teasedown of Google beta apps, it is revealed that many new Google extensions will be coming soon for Gemini. These extensions include previously unannounced Home, Phone, and Utilities, as well as confirmed extensions such as Keep, Tasks, and Calendar. It remains unclear whether these extensions will be released at once or gradually.

Google Gemini, which is already known for its powerful capabilities, will gain significant improvements with these new extensions. Currently, Gemini can connect with various platforms through existing extensions, such as Google Flights, Hotels, Maps, Workspace, YouTube, and YouTube Music. However, the latest APK teasedown shows that more extensions will be coming soon.

One of the most interesting and not announced extensions is Google Home's extension. This extension will allow Gemini to control smart home devices such as lights and switches directly. Currently, if Gemini is set as a digital default assistant on your phone, smart home-related commands must be handed over to Google Assistant, which could slow down the process. With this extension, Gemini will be able to carry out the order directly.

The next unannounced extension is an extension to the Phone app. Currently, a call-related order is also submitted to Assistant, but this extension will give Gemini the ability to take phone-related action, such as making calls, without having to rely on Google Assistant. While details are still not fully clear, it is hoped that this extension will allow simple commands like Call [names] run smoothly.

The Utilities extension is also one of the newly revealed. This extension seems to allow Gemini to interact directly with your phone's settings and apps, such as taking photos, opening apps, and adjusting volumes without the need to touch the screen. While it's still a theory, this extension may also offer the ability to lock your phone, switch to dark mode, or even restart.

In addition to these new extensions, there are also references to confirmed extensions in Google I/O 2024, namely Google Keep, Calendar, and Tasks. These extensions are expected to increase the integration of Google productivity tools in Gemini, simplifying task management and recording. Whether these extensions will be separate extensions or combined with existing Workspace extensions is still unknown.

The official launch of these extensions has not been confirmed, and it is not yet clear whether everything will be released at once or gradually. The APK's Teardown provides an overview of the features that may be present, but more details will be announced by Google.

Currently, Gemini already supports various extensions, and the addition of this new extension is expected to increase Gemini's functionality, making it a more versatile assistant with deeper integration capabilities with various Google services and phone capabilities.
