Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Image — AI image editing comes to the Gemini app
Google (DeepMind) has introduced Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, a major update to its AI image-generation and editing capabilities now integrated into the Gemini app and available to developers via APIs and Google AI platforms.
Key features
- Multi-image blending and editing — combine, merge or restyle multiple images seamlessly.
- Character consistency — keeps people, animals or objects visually coherent across edits and different poses.
- Precise localized edits — targeted changes via natural-language prompts (background blur, object removal, blemish fixes, etc.).
- Improved prompt accuracy — better at following detailed user instructions for edits.
- Low latency and cost-efficient — optimized for faster outputs and lower costs (Google lists pricing and token-based rates in the official announcement).
- Developer & enterprise access — available through the Gemini app, Gemini API, Google AI Studio and Vertex AI, and integrated into partner tools (e.g., Adobe).
- Safety & provenance — generated images include an invisible SynthID watermark as a standard safety measure.
Availability
The image model powers the updated Gemini app editing tools and is accessible via Google’s developer platforms. It’s also integrated into Adobe Firefly and Adobe Express to accelerate content-creation workflows.
