Gemini Menu Bar App
The application resides in the macOS menu bar, providing quick access to Gemini via an icon or a global shortcut. The window can be "pinned" to remain visible while working in other applications.
Command Palette
A centralized search interface (accessible via shortcut) that allows you to execute system actions, navigate features, switch between different "Gems," and enter Slash Commands quickly.
Gems Integration
The app automatically syncs your "Gems" (customized versions of Gemini) from your web account. You can assign numeric keyboard shortcuts (0-9) to instantly open your favorite Gems.
Slash Commands
Allows you to create and manage custom text commands (starting with /) that function as snippets. Typing a command automatically inserts a predefined prompt into the chat, streamlining repetitive tasks.
Gemini Split Panels
Multitasking support with multiple side-by-side navigation panels. This allows you to keep several chat sessions or different Gems open simultaneously in the same window, featuring resizable dividers.
Export to PDF
Dedicated functionality to export chat history to PDF files. The feature includes options to customize the document style before exporting.
Gemini Workspaces
A state management system to save and switch between different workflow environments. Workspaces store your specific configurations of Split Panels, pinned Gems, and bookmarks for instant context switching.
Shortcuts Management
A dedicated screen to view and manage all application keyboard shortcuts, covering everything from basic navigation and window control to quick switching of models and Gems.
Screenshot Manager
An integrated tool to take screenshots directly from the application interface or chats, facilitating information sharing.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Gemlet adds over 30 keyboard shortcuts to Gemini on Mac. All shortcuts are customizable from the Shortcuts Management screen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an official Google product?
No. Gemlet is an independent productivity client developed by Latrova Tech. It is not affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with Google LLC.
Do I need an API Key to use it?
No. Gemlet operates on a "Bring Your Own Account" model via a specialized webview. You do not need to generate technical API keys; you simply log in with your Google Account as you would in a browser.
Is my chat data private?
Yes. Gemlet functions essentially as a specialized browser. Your chat data, login credentials, and AI interactions flow directly between your device and Google's servers. We do not collect, store, or have access to your chat history.
Is Gemlet a subscription service?
No. Gemlet is sold as a "Lifetime License." You pay a one-time fee to own the software version, avoiding monthly recurring costs for the application itself.
Does the purchase include access to Gemini Pro/Ultra plans?
No. The purchase of a Gemlet license covers the macOS software interface only. It does not include a subscription to Gemini or any paid Google service. You will access the Free or Paid version of Gemini based solely on the status of your personal Google account.
How many Macs can I use my license on?
Each license allows you to activate and use Gemlet on up to 2 Macs simultaneously.
What happens if Google changes their website layout?
Since Gemlet relies on the public web interface of Gemini, changes by Google (DOM updates) may temporarily disrupt specific features like shortcuts. We commit to making reasonable efforts to update the software to restore functionality when these changes occur.
Can I get a refund if I don't like it?
Yes. We offer a money-back guarantee (14 days) if the software fails to function on your compatible device or does not meet your expectations, provided you contact support.
How do I download and install Gemlet after purchase?
After purchase, you can download the .dmg installer directly from the thank-you page. Your license key will be sent to your email. Simply open the installer and drag Gemlet to your Applications folder.
