The new capabilities, built on Google's Gemini 3.1 model, are scheduled to begin rolling out to select U.S. users at the end of June. Eligible devices must run Android 12 or higher and carry at least 4GB of RAM, with device language set to English-US.
Accessible via a Gemini icon in the Chrome toolbar, the assistant allows users to summarise web pages, ask questions about on-screen content, and interact with Google apps including Calendar, Keep, and Gmail without switching between applications.
A separate feature called Nano Banana will enable users to generate or customise images directly within the browser, with example use cases including converting web pages into infographics or previewing furnished interior spaces from property listings.
Auto browse, launching on Android for the first time, will allow Chrome to autonomously handle routine tasks on a user's behalf. Google cited integrations with parking service SpotHero and pet supply retailer Chewy as examples. The feature includes security protections against prompt injection and is designed to seek user confirmation before executing sensitive actions such as purchases or social media posts.
Auto browse will be restricted to users subscribed to Google's AI Pro and Ultra plans.
