Users slam Gemini: stuffed across Google apps yet can't manage its own Calendar
blelbach · x · 2026-09-17
zachklein complains that Google stuffed Gemini everywhere, yet it can't operate across its own services — he couldn't get an obvious request done from a school calendar PDF in Google Drive. blelbach adds: turning a Gmail into a Calendar invite works fine via ChatGPT, while Gmail's Gemini integration just replies "I can't change the color of a calendar event" and similar refusals, sparking criticism of Gemini's UX and cross-service integration.
