At the moment, you need to open the full Gemini experience on mobile to use the new upload shortcut. It’s not available in the Gemini overlay. However, we can confirm that Google will add the shortcut to the overlay with a future update. As you can see in the screenshot above, we’ve managed to enable the feature in the current Google app beta release, so it shouldn’t be long before it rolls out to users.
