Google Gemini update May 2026: Now you can create and download files instantly within chat

Google has rolled out a new feature for the Gemini app, allowing users to generate and export files directly from chat. Instead of the old routine where you had to copy and paste text into another app just to format it, Gemini can now handle the heavy lifting for you. You can ask it to whip up anything from a polished PDF to a Microsoft Word doc or even an Excel sheet right inside the chat.
