Gemini App Moves 2.5 Flash And Pro Into ‘preview’

The Gemini developments continue this week with 2.5 Flash and 2.5 Pro going from “experimental” to “preview” status in the app.

Google today updated the Gemini app model picker on Android, iOS, and the web for free and Advanced users:

2.0 Flash: Fast all-around help
2.5 Flash (preview): Our next reasoning model built for speed
2.5 Pro (preview): Reasoning, math & code
Deep Research with 2.5 Pro: Get in-depth research reports
2.0 Flash with Search history: Personalized to you
Veo 2: Generate videos from text

For comparison, the previous list (with what stayed the same excluded) is below:

2.0 Flash: For everyday tasks, plus more features
2.5 Flash (experimental): Uses advanced reasoning
2.5 Pro (experimental): Best for complex tasks
Personalization (experimental): Help based on your Search history

Google updated the 2.0 Flash description, while the new one for 2.5 Flash helps better distinguish them. Meanwhile, the one for 2.5 Pro makes clear its use cases. When 2.5 Pro was updated earlier this week, the Gemini app did not signal the change. Meanwhile, in entering preview, the Gemini 2.5 model family is closer to launch. It’s unclear whether Google made any other model changes today.

Finally, the Personalization model announced in March is now called “2.0 Flash with Search history” with the experimental label dropped. Hopefully, that will coincide with broader availability.
