What You'll Gain

• Automate daily routines like calendar/email summaries
• Receive creative prompts or updates on a set schedule
• Seamless integration with Google Workspace apps

What Are Gemini Scheduled Actions?

Scheduled Actions is a new feature in the Gemini app for AI Pro/Ultra subscribers and qualifying Workspace users.
 
It lets you schedule both recurring (e.g., “Give me five blog ideas every Monday”) and one-off prompts (e.g., “Summarize the award show the day after it airs”) since Gemini proactively delivers responses at the time you set. 

It's a shift from reactive chat to acting as an always‑on assistant.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Here's how to do it.

Microsoft Web/Desktop 
  1. Visit gemini.google.com.
  2. Sign in with your Google credentials.
  3. Submit your prompt: e.g., “Summarize my new email every Monday morning.”
  4. Gemini confirms with an inline scheduling card.
  5. Use Settings → Scheduled Actions to pause, edit, or delete the task. 

iOS & Android
  1. Open Gemini app (Android rollout in June 2025; iOS live soon).
  2. Input your prompt and specify timing, frequency.
  3. The app confirms and adds a “Pause” button inline.
  4. Manage from avatar → Scheduled Actions in settings.
