In an exciting update following the release of the Gemini 2.5 Pro model, Google is rolling out a new feature known as scheduled actions within the Gemini app. This innovative functionality is designed to help users streamline their routine tasks and receive personalized updates directly from the app. With scheduled actions, users can easily manage their daily responsibilities by simply asking Gemini to “perform a task at a specific time,” whether it be on a particular day, date, or after a certain event.
The introduction of scheduled actions allows users to transform existing prompts into recurring actions, meaning you can receive updates daily or weekly on your preferred topics. To manage these settings, a new scheduled actions settings page has been implemented, making it easier to keep track of everything you have requested. This feature aims to enhance user experience significantly by providing tailored assistance at the right moments.
There are numerous practical applications for this new feature. Here are a few examples of how you can utilize scheduled actions:
Wake Up with Important Updates: Start your day with a summary of your calendar and unread emails. Boost Your Creativity: Have Gemini generate five new blog ideas for you every Monday morning. Stay Informed: Receive timely updates on your favorite sports team’s performance. One-off Task Scheduling: For instance, request a summary of an award show the day after it occurs.The scheduled actions feature is rolling out today for users who have a Google AI Pro or AI Ultra subscription, as well as for those on qualifying Google Workspace business and education plans. However, as of Friday morning, this feature has not yet appeared on the mobile or desktop accounts we checked, leaving some users eager for its arrival.
While it remains uncertain whether this feature will eventually be made available to free users—similar to other functions like saved info and image generation—the potential for enhancing productivity is undeniable. Google envisions Gemini as a more personal, proactive, and powerful assistant, stating, “Just tell Gemini what you need and when, and it will take care of the rest.”
The launch of scheduled actions in the Gemini app marks a significant step toward a more efficient and personalized user experience. As Google continues to innovate, users can expect even more features that cater to their individual needs and preferences.
