Google Bard’s rebrand to Gemini might happen this week, with paid tier and accompanying Android app،
Google's AI chatbot, Bard, is currently undergoing a major transformation. We have been hearing for some time now about plans to rebrand it as “Gemini”, meaning its seamless integration with the latest AI model “Gemini”. However, it is now reported that in addition to a series of new features, there are also plans to launch a companion Android app.
Google added a new changelog for Bard, and – oh my goodness – it's a big one!
Availability in Canada is impressive! That said, I don't really understand the limitations of the application. This is disappointing for someone who lives in Europe.

A new Gemini app for Android
But the changes in Bard, which will soon become Gemini, will not be limited to the front-end website alone. This same changelog also reveals that the new Gemini will also be available as an app, in addition to its native integration with existing Google apps such as Gmail, Maps, etc.
Finally, Bard/Gemini on the web will finally be available in Canada in English and French, a region that was not supported by Bard in the past. The Gemini app will also be available soon, but first only in English.
This rebranding and feature expansion represents a major milestone for Google's AI chatbot. It's clear that Google's goal is to make Gemini both accessible and powerful for users around the world.
