The Google app is now available on Windows PCs. According to Google, the app brings Search and AI-powered features directly to the desktop, allowing users to quickly find information, access files, and get answers without switching between multiple apps or tabs. With built-in AI Mode and deeper system integration, the app focuses on making everyday tasks like searching, multitasking and retrieving files more seamless.
What the Google desktop app offers
According to Google, the desktop app is designed to simplify how users search and access information. It includes an AI Mode that lets users ask questions and get detailed responses along with relevant web links.
AI and multitasking features
Google said that the app is built to help users stay focused while working. A screen-sharing option allows users to select a window or their entire screen and continue asking questions without leaving their current task. This means users can get help while working on documents, browsing or using other apps without breaking their workflow.
Another key addition is support for Google Lens. With this, users can search for anything visible on their screen. For example, they can select text or images to translate content, identify objects or even get help with homework-related queries.
According to Google, the goal of the app is to make searching faster and more integrated into everyday tasks. Instead of opening a browser and switching between tabs, users can quickly find information, ask questions and access files from one interface. The rollout is currently available in English and is expected to expand further over time.
