- I think the most important
distinction between when to use Gemini app and
when to use Canvas mode is when you want to collaborate with the model to create something that maybe you then wanna export out. Oftentimes in a chat thread, it's hard to pinpoint I wanna change this specific line of the response, or I want to add something
here after this paragraph. That can be hard to call
out in a chat thread. But in Canvas, you can just
highlight certain portions of the text and have a conversation
with Gemini about that. And then maybe this is
like writing an email, edit all of it together, and
then export it out one time.
