Learn about smart features in Google Workspace & other Google products

You can manage smart feature settings for:

• Google Workspace, which includes apps for businesses, school, and personal use, such as Gmail and Drive.
• Other Google products, like Maps and Wallet.

You can choose to let Google Workspace use your Workspace content and activity to personalize your experience across Workspace. When you turn on smart features for Google Workspace, you get experiences like the ability to:

• Ask Gemini to summarize content, create drafts, and find key information, along with other Gemini for Google Workspace features.
• Show events like flight itineraries and invitations from Gmail in Calendar.
• Get personalized search results, such as keyword suggestions, file suggestions, and more relevant results.

You can also choose to let Google use your Workspace content and activity to personalize your experience in other Google products. When you turn on smart features for other Google products, you get experiences like:

• Restaurant reservations and to-go orders in Maps
• Suggested tickets, passes, and loyalty cards in Wallet
• Answers and reminders in Assistant
• Answers and suggestions from Gemini Apps

Each smart feature setting is independent of each other. For example, you can turn on smart features for Google Workspace, and turn off smart features for other Google products.

Learn how smart features use your Google Workspace content & activity

Smart feature settings govern the degree of personalization that you want. You can always turn smart features in Google Workspace and other Google products on or off in your settings.

When you turn on smart features, you can do things like:

• Use Gemini in Google Workspace to reference Drive files right from Gmail.
• Automatically add events such as flights from Gmail to Calendar.
• Compile loyalty cards and tickets from their inbox into Google Wallet.

When you turn off smart features, you can’t use the experiences like those listed above in Google Workspace or other Google products until you turn them on again.

If you use Gmail, Chat, or Meet, changes to Workspace smart feature settings don’t affect your existing control over smart feature settings in those products. Data sharing with other Google products may be subject to additional controls.

When smart features are on, your data may be used to improve these features. Across Google and Workspace, we’ve long shared robust privacy commitments that outline how we protect user data and prioritize privacy. Generative AI doesn’t change these commitments — it actually reaffirms their importance. Learn how Gemini in Gmail, Chat, Docs, Drive, Sheets, Slides, Meet & Vids protects your data.
