Gemini 应用免费用户改用 Auto 模型选择并新增思考等级
Free Gemini users now on ‘Auto’ models as app adds thinking levels
Google 为 Gemini 应用免费版用户推出改动，免费用户无法再手动切换模型，选择器中只剩 Auto 搭配 Gemini 3 模型，由系统自动把提示词分发给最合适的模型，多数提示词走最快的 Flash-Lite，需要更深推理的会走 Flash 或 Pro。若关闭智能模型选择，无 AI 套餐用户的全部回复都使用 Flash-Lite。同时 Google 上线新的 effort levels 取代此前的 Extended 选项，分为 Low、Medium、High 三档，与 Google AI Studio 和 Antigravity 中的 thinking levels 对应。Google AI Plus 用户之后将限制为 Flash-Lite 和 (3.8) Flash。
推荐理由
AI 评分 62
免费用户不再手动选模型，改为自动路由到 Flash-Lite、Flash 或 Pro，可据此判断 Gemini 免费档的能力边界。

Apps & Updates; Gemini; Gemini app
As announced last week, Google is rolling out a big change to the Gemini app experience for users on the free plan. Additionally, everyone is getting access to thinking or “effort” levels.
Free users “without a plan” can no longer manually switch models. Officially, their only option in the picker is “Auto” with “Gemini 3 models.” Last week, Google’s support documentation referred to it as (3.5) Flash-Lite.
Google says: “Gemini will use auto model selection to send each prompt to the Gemini model that suits it best. Most prompts will go to Flash-Lite, our fastest model. Prompts that need deeper reasoning may go to Flash or Pro.”
Meanwhile:
If smart model selection is turned off, chats for users without an AI plan will use Flash-Lite for all responses.
Google is also rolling out new “effort levels” that replace the previous “Extended” option. These three choices align with “thinking levels” in Google AI Studio and Antigravity:
Low: Quick and efficient; Medium: Balanced depth; High: Extra thorough
We’re seeing the free change rolled out on the vast majority of our free accounts this evening (PT). Google appears to be rolling out this update quite quickly.
Meanwhile, Google AI Plus users will soon be limited to Flash-Lite and (3.8) Flash.
