Gemini can now generate and edit Google Docs and other files directly in chat

On 30 October 2026, The Verge reported that Google Gemini can now generate, preview and edit a range of files directly in chat, including PDFs, Google Docs, Google Sheets, slides, Markdown, TXT and code files, with the feature available to all Gemini users from that day. PDF preview and editing work on both web and mobile, while other file formats are currently limited to the web version. Users can expand documents to full screen to edit them, or select text to have Gemini answer questions or modify the file, for example turning a table into a chart. The feature has now rolled out to all users, with mobile support still limited to PDFs.
