Google's Gemini App Monthly Active Users Surpass 7.5 Million

2026-02-05

According to the company's data, Google's AI chatbot Gemini has surpassed 7.5 million monthly active users (MAUs). This figure, revealed in the Q4 2025 earnings report, highlights Gemini's rapid adoption among consumers, swiftly establishing it as a significant player in the AI landscape.

Last quarter, Google reported Gemini's MAUs at 6.5 million, indicating substantial growth in a short period. In comparison, Meta AI reported its monthly active user base approaching 5 million. However, despite gaining traction, Gemini still trails its primary competitor, ChatGPT, which is projected to have reached approximately 8.1 million MAUs by the end of 2025. These latest numbers follow closely after the launch of Gemini 3, which features the company's most advanced model to date, reportedly delivering responses with unprecedented depth and nuance.

CEO Sundar Pichai emphasized that the rollout of Gemini 3 in AI Mode has been a "positive driver" for the company's growth, stressing that continued investment and iteration will sustain this momentum.

Google recently introduced a more affordable plan, Google AI Plus, priced at $7.99 per month. This offering is expected to fuel further growth by attracting budget-conscious consumers, although its recent launch means it hasn't yet impacted quarterly figures. "We are focused on both the free tier and subscriptions, and are seeing significant growth," Google's Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler stated during an investor call.

Gemini's growth is particularly notable within the context of Alphabet's overall financial performance. The company achieved over $400 billion in annual revenue for the quarter for the first time. Google attributes this milestone to the expansion of its AI division and the increased demand for its services. Recently, Google launched its latest generation of TPU AI accelerator chips, named Ironwood, to compete with Nvidia. "The launch of Gemini 3 was a significant milestone, and we have great momentum. Our first-party models, like Gemini, now process over 10 billion tokens per minute through direct customer API usage, and the Gemini app's monthly active users have grown to over 7.5 million. Search is being used more than ever, and AI continues to drive expansive moments," Pichai said in today's announcement.
