## Summary

Google has rolled out its experimental AI app Dreambeans in India, its first market outside the U.S. The app, available on Android and iOS, supports 13 local languages, including Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali and English. Dreambeans pulls data from connected Google services such as Calendar, Gemini, Gmail, Photos, Search and YouTube to generate illustrated stories about users’ interests without a prompt. In the U.S., the app has seen about 55,000 downloads since its June debut, with 63 % in September and a drop of 84 % to roughly 5,500 in October. In the first 30 days after opening to all eligible U.S. users, Dreambeans logged an estimated 29,000 downloads, compared with 7.4 million for Meta’s Muse, 2.8 million for ChatGPT, 362,000 for Grok Bot and 155,000 for Claude.

The app recently added animation using Google’s Veo video‑generation model. It also offers privacy controls: users can choose which services to connect, delete data, and tell the app to avoid certain subjects. Dreambeans is limited to one language per story and is only available to personal Gmail accounts. Google says it is exploring ways to make the app more actionable beyond storytelling.
