Google Adds One-Tap 'Summarize Page' to Gemini Overlay in Chrome for Android

The one-tap chip generates an in-app floating summary powered by Gemini 2.5 Flash.

Overview

  • The shortcut is now appearing in Chrome for Android across stable and beta builds, with support in Chrome Custom Tabs for Discover, Search results, and the Google News app.
  • Tapping the Summarize page chip above the Gemini prompt bar opens a floating summary window that can be expanded and used for follow-up questions.
  • Reporters observed that the flow uses the Gemini 2.5 Flash model regardless of whether a user has 2.5 Pro selected in the Gemini app.
  • The integration removes the previous need to paste a URL into Gemini or rely on older Assistant-based summaries on Pixel devices.
  • Google previously announced the Summarize feature for Gemini in Chrome on Mac and Windows for free U.S. users, indicating a staged rollout now extending to Android.
