Following last week\u2019s announcement<\/a>, Google shared today how much of a hit Nano Banana has been for the Gemini app.<\/p>\n

Officially, it\u2019s called Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, but Google is actively referring to it as Nano Banana in various places. That codename from the testing process really struck, with a banana emoji now present in the Gemini prompt bar. It\u2019s also \u201cNano Banana\u201d in AI Studio and there\u2019s even a @NanoBanana<\/a> social account. On LMArena\u2019s Image Edit leaderboard<\/a>, it\u2019s #1 by a wide 171-point margin.<\/p>\n

This image editing model\u2019s main advancement is how it maintains character likeness and consistency. There\u2019s also the ability to upload multiple photos, style transfer, and multi-turn\/prompt editing.<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s Josh Woodward shared today<\/a> that over 200 million images have been edited since the launch last Tuesday. Even more notable is how over 10 million people using Nano Banana are new to the Gemini app.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In other model news, Google Photos is now rolling out<\/a> Veo 3 for photo to video for \u201ceven higher-quality clips.\u201d It originally launched<\/a> with Veo 2 in July. This is available for all users, though subscribers can generate more.<\/p>\n
