These are rolling out gradually over the next few months. If the settings in this article do not match what you see, history and personalized recommendations for Search services are still controlled by Web & App Activity. Connect Search to your go-to apps to take action and get more personalized responses directly in AI Mode using natural language. Here are some examples of what AI Mode, with your permission, can connect to your apps to help you with: Make custom playlists with your music apps. Build grocery carts from a recipe with your grocery delivery apps. Create custom designs and take further action with your creative design apps. Important: This feature is currently available in AI Mode in the US, in English. Age restrictions are determined by the account age requirement on the connected app. What you need You must be signed into a Google Account Many apps require you to have an account with their service, which you will have to connect to your Google Account first to take action. Important: AI responses may include mistakes. Learn about generative AI and its limitations. How to use Connected Apps in Search On your computer, go to Google Search and tap AI Mode . You can also go to google.com/ai. Enter your request in the Ask anything bar. Examples: “Make me a grocery cart of healthy snacks and drinks for 8 adults." “Create a playlist featuring the top trending Bollywood songs from the past 10 years.” “I’m launching a weekend pop-up vintage clothing sale. Create a flyer draft in Canva that looks retro, grainy, and uses neutral earth tones.” Tip: If the app isn’t yet connected, you’ll get the option to connect it. If you’ve already connected the app to your Google account, you will see an option to ‘continue’ on AI Mode. Learn how to connect/disconnect Connected Apps in Search. Once AI Mode has completed your request, you may be directed to the connected app to finalize your requested action. For example: To complete grocery cart check out and manage and track your order, you will be directed to Instacart. To listen to your playlist, you will be directed to YouTube Music. To download or modify your weekend pop-up vintage clothing sale invite, you will be directed to Canva. Google may default to the last app you used for a certain task, but you can change which app you use to complete an action at any time (pending app availability on AI Mode). Mention the name of the desired app in the Ask anything bar in AI Mode. Available Apps Important: Availability of Connected Apps vary by location, language and device. You can connect various apps to Google Search, starting with media, grocery and design apps. New apps will be highlighted as they are made available.

To connect new apps: When you make a request to AI Mode, you can either specify the app directly, or make a general request and then select your desired app from the available app list. For example: “Build a cart for this healthy banana bread recipe.” “Make grocery cart of banana bread ingredients on Instacart” If the app isn’t already connected, you will be given the option to connect it. To connect to the app, you must have an account with that service, and link that app account to your Google Account. If it isn’t already linked, click ‘Link’ when surfaced and follow the steps in AI Mode to link it. To view already connected apps: Go to https://myaccount.google.com/ Linked apps. You can also go to https://myaccount.google.com/connections. To disconnect apps: Go to https://myaccount.google.com/ Linked Account. You can also go to https://myaccount.google.com/connections.

Go to Connected Apps settings Optimize your experience For the best experience, enable history and personalized recommendations. Without this setting enabled, you can still access AI Mode but can't pick up where you left off with previous searches. How data helps Google develop generative AI in Search To develop and improve generative AI experiences in Search and the related machine learning technologies, Google uses people's interactions with Search and these AI experiences. This can include interactions like what people search for and what feedback they provide to Google. With user feedback and human reviews, we evaluate and improve the quality of our results and products responsibly. When trained reviewers work to improve the quality of Search’s machine learning models, we take a number of precautions to protect users’ privacy: Data that reviewers see and annotate are disconnected from users’ accounts. Automated tools help recognize and remove a broad range of identifying info and sensitive personal information.
