Gemini Spark can now browse Chrome on your desktop for you

Your move: Rolling out first in the US, AI Pro access now in 160+ more countries

On July 30, 2026, Google gave Gemini Spark the ability to use desktop Chrome directly, browsing with your logged-in accounts and saved passwords instead of only a separate remote browser. Google's example tasks include scheduling apartment viewings you've saved or researching and starting a flight booking. You still have to approve payments and other sensitive actions, and the browser has protection against prompt injection. The Chrome integration is rolling out first in the US. The same day, Google also brought Gemini Spark to Google AI Pro subscribers in more than 160 additional countries, following a full US rollout.

Why it matters

If you're on Google AI Pro outside the US, this is likely your first chance to try Spark at all. And if you already use it, letting it drive your own signed-in Chrome instead of a separate remote browser means it can act on sites your Google connectors don't cover.
