Gemini Task Automation: A Hands-On Review of the New Feature

Gemini's new task automation feature has been making waves in the tech world, and we've had the chance to try it out for ourselves. The feature, which is currently limited to a small subset of apps, including Uber and DoorDash, allows Gemini to take the wheel and use apps for you. But is it as impressive as it sounds?

What is Gemini Task Automation?

Gemini's task automation feature is designed to make your life easier by automating tasks that you would normally have to do manually. With the feature, you can set up tasks such as ordering food or booking a ride, and Gemini will take care of the rest.

Hands-On Review

We've been testing out Gemini's task automation feature on the Pixel 10 Pro and the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and we have to say that it's been a mixed bag. On the one hand, the feature is incredibly impressive, and it's been able to automate tasks with ease. On the other hand, it's still in its early stages, and there are some limitations to what it can do.

Limitations

One of the biggest limitations of Gemini's task automation feature is that it's only available on a small subset of apps. Currently, it only works with Uber and DoorDash, and it's not clear when or if it will be expanded to other apps.

Another limitation is that the feature is still a bit clunky. Sometimes, it takes a while for Gemini to figure out what you want to do, and it can be frustrating to have to wait for it to catch up.

Conclusion

Overall, Gemini's task automation feature is an impressive piece of technology that has the potential to make your life easier. However, it's still in its early stages, and there are some limitations to what it can do. We're excited to see how the feature develops in the future, and we're hopeful that it will be expanded to more apps soon.
