Google is quietly assembling a set of personalization changes for Gemini, two of which have surfaced as hidden, not-yet-live notices inside recent builds. Both indicate that the company wants the assistant to treat external services as part of a user's context.

The first sits in the apps section as a dormant notification telling users that Gemini will prioritize information drawn from their paid subscriptions when generating answers.

Gemini prioritizes your paid subscriptions to generate better answers for you. Here you can control which sources are included in the related responses.

A near-identical line already appears in personalization settings, where it refers to Gemini pulling context across other Google products. Its move into the apps area hints that the same logic could stretch to third-party services. That reading fits recent activity: Canva's connector became widely available over the past week. Whether connectors will arrive faster remains unclear, since Google has historically shipped roughly one such integration per year, so any timeline remains open pending official word.

The second would hand users manual control over the context that Gemini gathers from connected apps. A "manage" button currently sits in place but does nothing yet, and the accompanying text indicates people will be able to inspect and adjust that context on a per-application basis. This is a different stance from rival labs, most of which keep cross-app memory opaque and out of the user's hands. Editing context, app by app, could matter to anyone wary of how much an assistant infers from their accounts, and it would give paid subscribers a clearer say over what feeds into their results.

The timing tracks a wider shift. Personal context is expected to reach NotebookLM shortly, carrying the same memory-aware approach beyond the main chatbot. Taken together, these signals describe a Gemini that leans on a user's whole digital footprint while, unusually, offering a way to turn it down.
