Gemini Apps limits & upgrades

Gemini Apps has usage limits designed to ensure an optimal experience for everyone. This means we may at times have to cap the number of prompts and conversations you can have, or how much you can use some features, within a specific timeframe. 

The number of prompts you can use before hitting the limit varies and depends on factors like how long and complex your prompts are, the size and number of files you upload, and the length of your conversations with Gemini Apps.

Important: Gemini Apps limits may change. If capacity changes, limits for users without a Pro or Ultra plan may be limited before users with a plan.

Your capacity replenishes regularly, so you can get back to chatting with Gemini Apps soon, or you can upgrade to a higher plan.

Users with certain Workspace editions have higher limits in Gemini Apps. Learn about limits for work accounts or school accounts.
How model limits work

Gemini Apps has more prompt and chat limits for more advanced models. If you reach your capacity limit for a specific model for a given period, you can switch to a different model until that limit is reached or wait until your capacity limit is refreshed.

How feature limits work

Some features in Gemini Apps have limits for how many assets you can generate or actions you can schedule. These features include:

  • Audio Overviews
  • Deep Research
  • Scheduled actions
  • Video generation
  • Image generation

Learn more about limits for these features.

Additional features

Usage limits for all additional features are subject to the limits of the model that you select when you use the feature. These features include, but are not limited to:

  • Canvas
  • Gems
  • Storybook
What you can do when you reach a usage limit
When you reach your limit, you can upgrade or wait until your limit refreshes.

If you want additional limits with a work or school Google Account, your organization can:

  • Upgrade to a Google Workspace plan that includes higher limits
  • Upgrade to Google AI Pro for Education
  • Upgrade to Google AI Ultra for Business

How to tell if you’re close to a limit & when it refreshes
Gemini Apps will notify you when you're close to your limit based on your plan's level. When you reach your limit, Gemini Apps gives you another notification that tells you when your limit will refresh.
What is a context window?

What is a context window?

When you upload files to Gemini Apps, it needs to "read" the content to provide useful insights or answers. The context window is like the reading capacity. It determines how much content can be understood together at one time.

Why you might want a larger context window

A larger context window allows Gemini to read and comprehend more. For example, with a 1M token context window, Gemini can understand up to 1,500 pages of text or 30,000 lines of code.

If you exceed the context window, this could lead to responses that don’t take into account all the content provided or miss connections or details throughout the content. This is most relevant for prompts that require attention to many details scattered throughout large files.

Activity for users with a work or school Google Account

Manage & delete Gemini Apps activity

For users with a work or school Google Account and access to Gemini Apps, Keep Activity is on by default and can only be turned off by your account’s Workspace administrator.

  • When you use the Gemini web app or mobile app with your work or school account, conversation history is saved by default for 18 months. Your admin can change the auto-delete setting to delete activity after 3, 18, or 36 months or turn history off altogether.
  • When Keep Activity is on, it includes activity from the Gemini web and mobile apps. Clearing your Gemini for Google Workspace history from a Workspace app doesn’t affect information saved to Gemini Apps Activity.

Find your Gemini Apps activity

  1. On your computer, go to gemini.google.com.
  2. Click Settings & help and then Activity .
