Google’s latest experiment is now available to everyone, and it’s all about

TL;DR

• Google’s Dreambeans experiment is now available to all users aged 18+ in the US on Android and iOS.
• Dreambeans uses information from connected Google apps like Gmail, Calendar, Photos, YouTube, Search, and Gemini to create personalized stories and recommendations.
• Google Photos can make these stories even more personal by incorporating photos of you and your loved ones and suggesting things you could do together.

Google has been experimenting with a rather unusual way to make your personal data feel a little more useful. A couple of months ago, it introduced Dreambeans, an experiment that turns information scattered across your Google apps into personalized stories and recommendations. Now, it’s opening the feature up much more widely. Dreambeans is now available to Google users aged 18 and older in the US on both Android and iOS.

The interesting part is just how personal these stories can get. Instead of giving everyone the same generic suggestions, Dreambeans can pull context from the Google apps you choose to connect, including Gmail, Calendar, Photos, Search, YouTube, and now Gemini. It then combines that information with topics you might care about, such as places worth visiting, something new to watch, or an upcoming event.
