Gemini’s next desktop upgrade could let it handle tasks across your apps

TL;DR Google is reportedly testing a new Tasks mode in the Gemini desktop app for more hands-off, multi-step work.

New Computer Use settings could let users control which desktop apps Gemini can and cannot operate.

Tasks also includes Gemini Live, which may let users talk to Gemini while it works across their computer.

Gemini has barely had time to settle into its new Windows home, but Google already seems eager to turn the desktop app into much more than it already is. The Windows client launched earlier this month after the app debuted on Mac in spring with keyboard access and plans for local file support. Now, a new test suggests Google wants Gemini to get work done across your computer itself.

TestingCatalog reports that some users are starting to receive a new Tasks mode in the Gemini app on desktop. The interface adds a Chat/Tasks switch, separating regular conversations from more agentic work. We don’t have access to Tasks itself yet, so exactly what users can hand off to it isn’t entirely clear.
