  • Google has quietly updated its requirements for Gemini in Google Messages.
  • The integration no longer requires a Pixel or Galaxy device.
  • Instead, you only need an Android device with 6GB of RAM or higher.

Google first released the Gemini chatbot for its Messages app earlier this year, but the bad news is that you needed a Google Pixel or Samsung Galaxy device. Fortunately, this requirement has now been relaxed.

The company just announced the availability of Gemini in Google Messages for India. However, it also quietly updated its support page (h/t: 9to5Google) to reveal that you only need an Android device with 6GB of RAM or higher.
