Google has made it possible to export interactive apps from the Gemini app to Google Sites in a few clicks. The app lands in a private draft that you can edit, publish and share.

If you have built a small interactive app in Google's AI assistant Gemini, you can now move it to a Google Sites website without copying any code. Google announced the change on October 19, 2026.

How it works

In the Gemini app, you select Export and then Google Sites on your interactive app. The app is placed in a new, private draft of a site, which opens directly in Google Sites. It remains interactive and can be customized.

From there, you can add more content, publish the site and share it like any other Google Sites site. According to Google, you don't have to copy code or rebuild anything to share the app with teams, customers or students.

Chrome Unboxed notes that standard Google Sites components, such as text, documentation and widgets with files from Google Drive, can be added to the page before it is published.

Who can use it

The feature is available to Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual subscribers and users with a personal Google account who have access to the Gemini app. It requires that Google Sites is turned on for the user and that the user is allowed to create and edit sites.

The feature rolled out on October 19, 2026 on web, Android and iOS, both for organizations that get new features quickly (Rapid Release) and those that get them on a set schedule (Scheduled Release).

There is no new admin control for the feature. Organizations' existing Google Sites and Google Drive policies therefore apply here as well.

What's new and what's missing

According to Robby Payne of Chrome Unboxed, sharing apps made in Gemini previously often required manual copying, formatting workarounds or messy third-party embeds.

The outlet Let's Data Science, on the other hand, points out that Google's announcement does not provide technical details about hosting limitations, data handling or the underlying format of the exported apps. According to the outlet, that could matter for anyone who wants to use them in day-to-day operations.

For ordinary users, the news mainly means that a quickly built AI app is easier to share with colleagues, customers or students.
