In Google Maps, you will now see an “Ask about place” chip after summoning Gemini, which makes it far more convenient to uncover relevant information using a back and forth chat approach.
Table of Contents Google is steadily rolling out contextual improvements to Gemini that make it easier for users to derive AI’s benefits across its core products. For example, opening a PDF in the Files app automatically shows a Gemini chip to analyze it. Likewise, summoning it while using an app triggers an “ask about screen” option, with live video access, too.
The name is pretty self-explanatory. When you tap on the “ask about place” button, the selected location is loaded as a live card in the chat window to offer contextual answers. You can can ask the AI assistant about the shortest route, and get an answer summarized in natural language. For added convenience, all the landmarks and important navigation points in the response are neatly hyperlinked, too.
The overarching idea is that instead of spanning, zooming, and going back-and-forth between Google Search and Maps view, Gemini will directly field all your questions in one place. All you need to do is type your queries or just speak them as natural language sentences.
