Google Rolls Out Gemini ‘Memories’ in Germany and the EEA

The move brings personalized responses to EU users under stricter data rules.

Overview

  • Google, which began distributing the update Wednesday, says the memory setting is on by default and will reach all users in the coming weeks.
  • The “Gemerkte Informationen” option lets Gemini remember details you share in chats and use them to tailor later answers.
  • Users in the EEA get a limited version that does not tap Gmail, Photos, search history or YouTube history or provide proactive insights available in the US.
  • People can turn the feature off in the Gemini app under Settings > Personal context > Gemerkte Informationen and manage or delete saved chats in Gemini activity controls.
  • An import tool helps newcomers bring memories or full chat logs from other AI apps by using a generated prompt or uploading ZIP files, a switch-friendly step ahead of Google I/O in mid May where more Gemini updates are expected.
