Reference your Google Calendar using Gemini in the side panel of Gmail in additional languages

What’s changing

Last year, we added Google Calendar to the list of apps that Gemini in Gmail connects with. As a result, users can ask Gemini in Gmail to perform select calendar related actions or answer questions about their calendars such as:

• When is my [first event] next week?
• Create a [30 min] calendar event for my weekly [yoga class] every [Monday and Wednesday] at [9 AM].
• Create a [1h] event for [lunch] [tomorrow] at [noon].

Today, we’re excited to announce this feature is available in more than 20 additional languages:

• • Arabic 
  • Catalan 
  • Chinese 
  • Czech 
  • Danish 
  • Dutch 
  • Finnish 
  • French 
  • German 
  • Greek 
  • Hebrew 
  • Hungarian 
  • Indonesian 
  • Italian 
  • Japanese 
  • Korean
