Google is testing a new feature in Gemini that makes editing images much more precise and direct.
Since the launch of the Nano Banana model, and even the Nano Banana Pro powered by the Gemini 3 Pro, Google seems to have the upper hand in image creation and editing over its rivals.
The newly discovered tool by Android Authority allows you to mark, draw or circle specific areas of an image to make changes or annotations. After adding an image to the conversation, whether taken with the camera or selected from the gallery, you can tap the image and a row of colors will appear that allows you to underline, outline or add text directly on the photo.
Beyond simple editing, This function also allows you to identify people and objects within the imagealthough precision may vary. These features are currently available to select users of the Google app, including those with free Gemini accounts. We will have to wait a few days for a broader deployment.
The arrival of this tool solves a problem that existed previously. Although Gemini could already edit images, It was not possible to indicate precisely which part of the photo you wanted to modify or add elements. Now, users can indicate directly on the image what they want to change, making editing simpler and faster.
This marking system is added to other image and video functions that Gemini has been incorporating in recent times. The popularity of the tool has increased so much that Google has had to limit its use to users of the free plan.
Gemini is establishing itself as a favorite tool for those who want to create and edit images in an intuitive and powerful way.
