Gemini’s home screen could soon get a Discovery-style redesign
Description
- Our app teardown revealed that Google is testing a new Gemini home screen.
- The redesign adds a scrollable feed of one-tap prompt suggestions.
- Prompts range from image edits to news, quizzes, and coding.
Like almost all AI chatbots, Gemini has cultivated a minimalistic look from the beginning. When you open the app, it presents you with an uncluttered home screen, and we’ve seen Google testing minor UI tweaks in recent months. However, we live in a scrollable world, and Google appears to be considering a more drastic rethink about how users interact with the app from the start.

In Google app version 16.38.62.sa.arm64, we managed to enable a redesigned Gemini home screen in testing. The current layout greets you with a welcome message and shortcuts for core tools, such as Create Image and Deep Research. In the new design, those buttons shift upward to make room for a scrollable feed of suggested prompts.
