Gemini in Chrome Gets a New 'Select From Screen' Feature for Faster AI-Powered Searches

4:10 PM IST · June 25, 2026

Google launched the Circle to Search feature to help initiate search directly from the screen a few years back, and it has become one of the company's most popular AI-powered tools. Now, Google is introducing a similar level of experience in Gemini in Chrome with a new feature called "Select from Screen." This latest functionality lets users quickly select and attach on-screen content to Gemini prompts. Instead of manually entering details, users can select a portion of their screen and send it directly to Gemini for assistance. The Select from Screen tool is being rolled out as part of Chrome version 149.
