The AI chatbot has been a part of the Google search application since earlier this year and now 'Gemini' has been released as its own standalone app for iPhones.

The new app includes 'Gemini Live' which is a voice-based feature that allows users to have natural conversations with the chatbot and Apple has already said it will incorporate OpenAI's ChatGPT into a refreshed version of its voice assistant, Siri.

Users can choose from one of 10 voices that applies to all 'Gemini' responses. At launch, the following languages are supported: English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, Arabic, Italian, Indonesian, Japanese, Turkish, and Vietnamese.

Brian Marquardt, a senior director of product management at Google, said in a statement: "It’s great for when you want to practice for an upcoming interview, ask for advice on things to do in a new city, or brainstorm and develop creative ideas."

While the app doesn't have control over iPhone settings or third-party apps like Apple's own Siri or other competitors' AI systems, Gemini can access and interact with various Google apps such as Maps, Gmail, Drive, and YouTube.

Users can quickly retrieve information and perform tasks like checking emails, finding locations, or managing files directly through the AI assistant.

The app launched for Android phones in September and the free Google Gemini app itself is available now in 35 languages worldwide on the App Store.
