What's the story

In response to user feedback about hitting limits too quickly,

has announced changes to its

app.

The tech giant has introduced a new "compute-used" approach.

The method refreshes every five hours until the weekly limit is met and considers prompt complexity, tool usage, and chat length.

Usage breakdown

New approach based on prompt complexity

Google's new approach to usage limits is based on the complexity of prompts.

The company explained that "a simple text prompt uses far less compute than a complex video or coding prompt."

This way, users will not hit their limits as quickly while using more complex features of the app.

In a bid to further enhance user experience, Google will let Gemini app users purchase pay-as-you-go top-up AI credits.

Quota management

Quota limits for individual prompts

To prevent complex prompts with large files from quickly depleting limits, Google is capping the amount of quota a single prompt can use.

The tech giant has also clarified that errors do not count against the usage limits.

"If a request fails, you won't be charged," the company said. "Our system mistakes are on us, not you. Your quota is used only for successful completions."

Enhanced features

More detailed usage breakdowns and notifications for heavy tasks

For heavy tasks like Deep Research that "require more compute," Google is going to provide "more detailed usage breakdowns and notifications to help you maximize your limits."

Currently, the gemini.google.com/usage dashboard only provides a high-level overview of usage.

This change will give users a better understanding of their usage patterns and help them manage their quotas more effectively.
