Changelog
May 22, 2026 · v3.6.0
- featureVoice input
Tap the microphone in the message box to speak instead of type. Your speech is transcribed straight into the composer, so you can dictate questions hands-free.

Every assistant reply now has a read-aloud button. Listen to answers in a natural voice, and choose from several voices (Aria, Atlas, Sol and more) in Settings.
- improvementFaster, lower-cost replies
The system prompt is now cached across requests on supported models, and streamlined for signed-out users, so responses start sooner and cost less without changing answer quality.
- improvementTimes and dates match your timezone
The assistant now uses your browser timezone for “today”, “now”, and other time-sensitive answers instead of UTC.
- improvementMore reliable tool use
When a model produces a malformed tool request, the assistant now repairs it automatically instead of failing, so web search, image generation, and other tools succeed more often.
May 19, 2026 · v3.5.1

Auto Mode now picks Gemini 3.5 Flash for everyday simple and standard prompts, so replies come back quicker on routine questions. Harder prompts still route to higher-capability models when that is the better fit.
- improvementLighter fast-tier model
When a lighter model is the best fit, Auto Mode now uses Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite. It keeps responses snappy on short questions and quick follow-ups while reducing cost.
May 16, 2026 · v3.5.0
