Google’s Gemini app has surpassed 1 billion monthly active users, making it the 14th Google product to reach the milestone and one of the company’s fastest-growing products, according to CEO Sundar Pichai. (11/08)
Pichai announced the milestone via X on August 11, 2026. The achievement puts Gemini alongside OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which reached 1 billion monthly active users in June.
Gemini Reaches 1 Billion Monthly Users
Google has expanded Gemini across its products, including Search, Workspace, Android and its standalone app.
Google’s AI Mode in Search has also reached more than 1 billion monthly active users globally. However, the latest figure refers specifically to the Gemini app and does not include AI users from other Google services.
Gemini Users Embrace Voice and Image Features
Google said 63% of Gemini users interact directly with the assistant through its voice feature.
The company also reported that Gemini generates more than 150 million images each day.
Google has continued to introduce new models and features for Gemini. One of them is Gemini 3.5 Flash, which the company says is designed to improve coding and autonomous AI-agent tasks.
Gemini Expands on iOS
Gemini’s growth also extends beyond Google’s own products. Google said the service now has more than 100 million active users on iOS.
The 1 billion-user milestone follows Google’s second-quarter 2026 earnings call, when the company reported more than 950 million monthly Gemini users.
Google also said Gemini’s daily active users had tripled over the past year.
More Gemini Features Expected for Pixel
The milestone comes ahead of Google’s Made by Google event, where the company is expected to launch more Gemini-powered features across Pixel devices.
