Gemini App is Allowing User to Upload Audio Files.

Google has rolled out a highly-requested "quality-of-life" improvement for its Gemini app, introducing the ability for users to upload audio files on the web, as well as on Android and iOS devices. This new feature significantly enhances Gemini's capabilities by allowing it to process and understand spoken content from external sources.

The process for uploading audio is straightforward and consistent across platforms. Users can access the feature by tapping the "plus" menu and selecting "Files" on their mobile device or "Upload files" on the web. The tool supports popular audio file formats, including MP3, M4A, and WAV, making it versatile for a wide range of uses.

Subscription Tiers and Audio Length.

Google has implemented a tiered system for audio length based on a user's subscription status:

• Free Users: Can upload audio files with a total length of up to 10 minutes. This is perfect for quick transcriptions, summarizing short meetings, or processing voice notes.
• Google AI Pro / Google AI Ultra Subscribers: Have a much larger capacity, allowing them to upload audio files up to 3 hours in length. This is ideal for professionals, students, and anyone needing to transcribe or analyze longer-form content like lectures, interviews, or podcasts.

This feature opens up a world of possibilities, from easily transcribing lectures for students to summarizing long interviews for journalists, making Gemini an even more powerful tool for productivity.
