Google announced the launch of the Connected Apps Platform, enabling more app developers to connect their capabilities directly into Gemini and Search. Currently, there are more than 50 third-party Connected Apps in the Gemini app, including Adobe, Dropbox, Instacart, OpenTable, Ticketmaster, and others, and Google also announced that the Calm integration will launch in the coming weeks. Developers need a cloud-hosted MCP server or an Android MCP based on the AppFunctions API, then register, test, and submit their apps through the new Google Connected Console, where they can view traffic, latency, and error rates.
