Google adding more Connected Apps to Gemini & Search with new dev platform

Google today announced the Connected Apps Platform as a “unified way for more app developers to bring their capabilities directly into Gemini and Search.”

Existing third-party Connected Apps let you access Adobe, Dropbox, Instacart, OpenTable, Ticketmaster, and other services — now numbering over 50 — from the Gemini app. Google also announced a new Calm integration that will be available in the coming weeks. These @-integrations join first-party offerings like Google Workspace, Photos, and YouTube. To date, the creation process has required working closely with Google.

Google is now expanding availability on multiple fronts, starting with the Connected Apps Platform. It’s billed as a way to “build once and reach high-intent users.” Developers need to have a cloud-hosted MCP server or Android MCP using the AppFunctions APIs. They then register, test, and submit their Connected Apps using the new Google Connected Console. This new website lets them track traffic, latency, and error rates, as well as control brand identity.

In addition to the Gemini app, Google will soon make existing Connected Apps available in Search. Developers can “choose whether [their app] will go live in Search, the Gemini app, or both.” As part of the recent redesign, the Gemini app gained a new Customize page.

Developers can sign up for the preview at developers.google.com/connected-apps. Google is opening up access in phases over the coming months.
