Gemini is now capable of remembering the locations of your belongings so you don't need to.

      Google has introduced a memory feature for Gemini to help you keep track of your belongings.

      If you often misplace important documents, the latest update to Gemini could be beneficial. Google is set to launch a new function that remembers where you’ve placed items based on your descriptions. This feature is being released with four other updates in the September Android Drop.

      With this latest Android Drop, you will be able to: • Locate items in the Find Hub without needing tracking tags—just ask Gemini. • Use Motion Assist to ease motion sickness while in the passenger seat, featuring a subtle bubble overlay on your screen that moves along with the vehicle.

      So, what can this new Gemini feature do?

      Once the feature is available, you will be able to tell Gemini something like, “I put my passport in the bedroom drawer,” attach a photo, and have it store that location in Find Hub. You won’t need any additional accessories, pairing, charging, or battery changes.

      Later, if you forget again (and it seems Google expects this will happen), you can simply ask Gemini where it is or check the 'remembered' items tab in Find Hub. This feature requires Android 16 or newer and is available only in regions where both Gemini and Find Hub are offered.

      It's important to clarify that this feature is not a tracking system. Gemini will only recall the information you provided. Honestly, I’ve been doing something similar in the Notes app on my iPhone, and I don’t quite grasp why Google is interested in the locations of your important documents.

      What if being a passenger didn't mean dealing with motion sickness? Motion Assist is designed to alleviate motion sickness, allowing you to catch up on texts and reading while in the car.

      What else is being introduced this month?

      Motion Assist aims to alleviate car sickness caused by focusing on your phone (a static object) in a moving vehicle. It shows little bubbles on your screen that move with the vehicle’s motion.

      Additionally, three smaller yet significant features are being introduced in the September Drop. The first, Guided Vision, is designed for users with blindness or low vision, narrating what the camera sees during a Gemini Live session, including reading labels or menus aloud.

      Google Keep will soon be integrated directly within a Google Messages thread, allowing a group to create a shared list without leaving the chat. Custom themes will also enable users to change backgrounds and colors for each conversation. Both of these features are available starting today, while the others will be added later in the month.

      For over five years, Shikhar has consistently simplified developments in consumer tech and presented them...

      Dyson has launched its first toothbrush, which costs about the same as an entry-level smartphone and justifies its price with a camera and AI capabilities.

      It features a camera, utilizes AI, and has a companion app that can be installed on your smartphone. I never thought I would say this, but there is a toothbrush priced like a mid-range Android smartphone, equipped with Wi-Fi and a built-in camera. Dyson has introduced the CameraJet, a toothbrush that includes an actual camera and an AI detection system designed specifically to identify and eliminate gaps between teeth that regular toothbrushes often miss.

      Ultrahuman aims to leverage your sleep data to enhance its Ring's ability to personalize health insights.

      Ultrahuman believes that ordinary sleep patterns, recorded from numerous real people, can solve issues that small lab studies could not.

      New health wearables, especially rings, have historically had a significant limitation. The data processing behind their scores is typically based on a small, controlled group. Ultrahuman has proposed a solution, perfectly timed for IFA 2026: Pulsomics. This program will transform Ring owners' sleep data into research insights on a scale that can genuinely benefit all users.

      OlloBot is redefining home AI to be more interactive and suited for everyday life.

      For the past decade, interacting with home AI has followed a predictable pattern: a person utters a wake word, requests something like the weather or turning off the lights, the device responds, and that’s where the interaction ends. While functional, this approach makes smart devices purely transactional, treating them as tools for specific tasks instead of integrated systems within a living space. OlloBot is taking a different approach with the OlloNi SS1, a physical AI companion that is built into a movable body rather than confined to a screen.
