Google appears to be testing a new feature that integrates Gemini into Chrome for Android, allowing you to use agentic browser capabilities on your mobile device.

As spotted by Leo on X, Google is testing agentic capabilities and Gemini integration for Chrome on Android.

This claim is based on new references spotted on Chromium, which is the source code of Chrome.

"Binary size is increased because this change brings in a lot of code to support Chrome Glic, which will be enabled in Chrome Android in the near future," an engineer working for Google explained in a Chromium post.

While it doesn't tell us how Gemini will be integrated into Chrome for Android, it suggests that the feature is indeed being considered.

For those unaware, "Glic" is the codename of Gemini in Chrome.

How does Google plan to integrate Gemini into Chrome for Android

I wouldn't be surprised if the integration is similar to Copilot in Edge for Android.

For example, you might see a floating button to summarize the website using Gemini or ask a follow-up question.

On desktop, Gemini uses the content of open tabs to provide contextual help, such as summarizing pages and comparing information.

It's worth noting that Gemini in Chrome desktop is not widely available. If you've access, you can open Gemini on a desktop using Alt + G on Windows and Ctrl + G on Mac.

It's unclear when Gemini will begin rolling out in Chrome for Android, but we're expecting an official announcement soon.
