"Google added an "Answer now" link or button to the Gemini app. Clicking "Answer now" will stop Google's Gemini from thinking and then give you an answer right away using Gemini 3 Flash model."
"This was shared by Josh Woodward, VP, Google Labs, Gemini, & AI Studio, who posted about this on X - he said, "You can now tap "Answer now" to stop Gemini App from thinking and answer right away (using the 3 Flash model).""
"So I guess if you don't have the patience to get a really thoughtful and maybe better answer, you can just use a faster model to get the answer."
The Gemini app now includes an 'Answer now' control that interrupts ongoing processing and returns an immediate reply using the Gemini 3 Flash model. The option prioritizes lower latency over deliberation, providing quicker, less contemplative responses compared with waiting for a more thoughtful output. Availability may vary across users; the control may not appear for everyone yet. The feature gives users an explicit choice to favor speed, enabling faster interactions at the cost of potentially reduced response depth or nuance.
