Google is rolling out app integrations directly within Search's AI Mode, allowing users to securely link services and execute actions without leaving the search interface.
Google unified its search interface around Gemini 3.5 Flash, blending AI Overviews with chatbot-style AI Mode, while rolling out background-monitoring agents for paying subscribers.
Google's AI Mode has surpassed 1 billion monthly active users globally one year after launch, with U.S. users adopting longer queries and multimodal search at accelerating rates.
