Gemini memory

How Gemini remembers on its own

• “You can get a personalized experience from Gemini Apps using memory of your past chats.” Gemini “can learn from your chats to understand more about you and your world.” Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats
• You can turn Memory on or off at any time. In the mobile app, the setting is under Personal context. Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats
• It needs a personal Google Account, an age of 18 or over, and Keep Activity turned on. It isn’t available on work, school or supervised accounts. Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats
• It isn’t available in some features, such as Gems or Live chats. Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats
• To check, you can ask Gemini: “Did you use any info from past chats?” Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats
• The memory summary shows what Gemini understands about you. You can view, edit and delete it: open Settings, then Personal Intelligence, then Memory summary, or ask “What do you know about me?” Gemini Apps Help: memory summary
• You can also give Gemini instructions to apply to every chat, under “Your instructions for Gemini” in Personal context. Google warns that telling Gemini to forget or avoid a topic “doesn’t always work perfectly”. To fully stop a topic, delete the related chats from your Gemini Apps Activity. Gemini Apps Help: your instructions
• Temporary Chats are kept for up to 72 hours. Google says they won’t be used to personalize Gemini or to train its AI models. Google: Temporary Chats
• None of the Google pages we checked on 5 November 2026 explains how many past chats Gemini can draw on, or how long its memory of them lasts. Gemini Apps Help: memory of past chats Gemini Apps Help: personalization

What Dray adds

• The Dray extension saves your chats on gemini.google.com. Dray privacy policy
• Dray reads your conversations, not Gemini’s saved info. Dray privacy policy
• Added as a connector, Gemini can search what you saved from ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and your coding agents. Dray: connect
• Gemini then uses Dray on its own when your memory would help. You can also type @Dray. Dray: connect
• You choose how far back Dray reads, from the last three days to all of your history. When you delete a chat in Gemini while Dray is running, Dray deletes it from your memory too. Dray help Dray privacy policy
• On a saved chat, the Dray menu offers “Ask ChatGPT about this chat” (or Claude), listing only assistants you have connected. It opens that assistant with the request typed, and you press Send yourself. Dray help
• Antigravity is Google’s coding agent, and it has its own page: see Antigravity memory.

Set it up

The Dray extension sets this up for you. It adds Dray to Gemini’s Connected apps as a custom app and signs in to Dray. It sets every Dray tool to Always allow, so Gemini doesn’t stop to ask. You can change that on Dray’s page in Gemini’s connected apps. It also writes one line about Dray into Saved info for you to submit. Dray help Dray: connect

Set it up by hand

Custom connectors need a personal Google account with Keep Activity turned on, and Google is still rolling them out. If you don’t see + Custom, it isn’t on your account yet. Dray: connect

Check that it works

Paste this into a new Gemini chat. Dray can take about 15 minutes to learn from a new message. Dray help

Use Dray to tell me what you remember about my current projects. If no memory is available, say so.

Limits

• Custom connectors aren’t on every account yet. Until + Custom shows for you, Dray still saves your chats for your other assistants, but Gemini itself can’t look anything up. Dray: connect
• Dray doesn’t change Gemini’s own memory, so it can’t edit your memory summary or your instructions.
• Saving chats needs Chrome (116 or later), Firefox (140 or later), Edge, Brave or Opera on a computer. Safari, phones and tablets can’t install the extension. Dray help
• Reading may miss or misread chats, and memory extraction can be wrong.
• Some business plans switch MCP off or allow only approved servers. Dray: connect
• Dray learns from 1,000, 5,000 or 20,000 of your messages a month, depending on your plan. Going over deletes nothing; new messages wait until the month resets or you move up. Dray: usage
