# The Latest Gemini App Upgrade: A Revamped Experience for iPhone Users
In January 2025, Google launched a major update for the Gemini app on Android, and now iPhone users are witnessing a comparable revamp. The new version, 1.2025.0670001, presents a modern homescreen redesign that enhances user engagement by automatically bringing up the keyboard at startup.
## Key Aspects of the Redesign
### Broadened Input Area
A prominent alteration is the “Ask Gemini” input area, which now extends across the full screen width. This modification not only boosts accessibility but also enables a more engaging interaction with the application.

Users can access the camera, gallery, and files via a newly crafted ‘plus’ menu. This simplifies navigation and enables the use of diverse functionalities without overcrowding the interface.

When a user submits a prompt, the text box changes into a rounded rectangle, providing a visually pleasing indication that the input has been acknowledged.
