Samsung Adds Google’s Nano Banana Image Editing to Now Brief on Galaxy Phones

The new flow lets the Memories card hand off a selected photo to Gemini for cloud-based transformations triggered by tap-to-use prompts.

Overview

  • Samsung has updated the Personal Data Intelligence app to insert a Nano Banana image-creation card into Now Brief on supported devices.
  • After users enable the “Nano Banana Image Creation” toggle in settings, Now Brief selects a daily photo from the gallery and surfaces suggested prompts.
  • Tapping a prompt opens the Gemini app, which uploads the image to Google’s servers and generates the requested transformation.
  • The resulting image can be saved, copied, or shared directly from Gemini, while more detailed editing remains available in the Gemini app and Galaxy AI’s Drawing Assist.
  • The integration broadens GoogleSamsung AI collaboration, expanding Now Brief beyond mostly first‑party ties as results are reported to vary in quality.
