Why Use Gemini In Gmail?
Gemini in Gmail controls AI to draft messages based on user prompts. This feature is designed to streamline email writing, making it easier and faster to communicate effectively. Users who are eligible will notice a “Help me write” button in Gmail. This button can be used to craft a new draft using a freeform prompt and then refine the draft as needed.
How To Draft An Email Via Gemini In Gmail
Here are simple steps to help you use Gemini in order to draft your emails:
Step 1: Start by opening Gmail on your computer. You can either compose a new email or reply to an existing email thread.
Step 2: In the top left corner of Gmail, click on “Compose” to start a new email.
Step 3: In the bottom left corner of the new email window, you’ll see the “Help me write” button. Click on it to activate Gemini.
Step 4: Type a prompt into the provided space. This could be as simple as “Draft an email to invite my friend to dinner,” or any other directive.

Important Considerations
While Gemini is a powerful tool, it’s important to note that its suggestions don’t represent Google’s views and shouldn’t be attributed to the company. Users are advised not to rely on Gemini for medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. The feature is designed to assist with drafting emails but should not be considered a substitute for professional counsel.
