As we’re gearing up for back-to-school season, Google is rolling out a new dedicated student hub in Gemini. It’s a one-stop repository for collecting research in a study notebook, creating flashcards, taking practice quizzes, and more. Google is also enhancing its study notebooks with support for graphs and images. It can even add test dates and deadlines to your Google Calendar based on your syllabus.
Google is also adding Deep Research to Gemini Live. You can ask Gemini to generate complicated research reports and talk through the results. If it’s taking a while, you can close the chat and lock your phone screen, and Gemini will let you know when your report is ready. In the coming weeks, it will also start rolling out a new feature for Lens in the Google mobile app that lets you take a photo of your study or worksheet and get explanations, help with complicated concepts, or even coaching if you’ve made a mistake.
Eligible students in the US can score one year of Google AI Pro for free, which includes 5TB of storage, Google Health Premium, higher usage limits on Gemini, and access to Gemini across Google apps. Students outside the US will have to make do with the slightly less comprehensive Google AI Plus sub, which comes with 400GB of storage and lower Gemini usage limits.
