Google previews one platform to put MCP apps in Gemini and Search
Google has opened a preview of its Connected Apps Platform, a single place for developers to build apps that work inside the Gemini app and Google Search. Developers connect a cloud-hosted MCP server, or Android MCP through the AppFunctions APIs, then register, test and submit the app in the Google Connected Console, choosing Search, Gemini or both. Once an app is live, they can track traffic, latency and error rates. Access is opening in phases, and Google says it has launched more than 50 Connected Apps across Search and Gemini, with partners such as Adobe, Experian, Localiza and Peloton already live in Gemini.
Why it matters: If you already run or plan an MCP server for your product, one build could reach customers in both Gemini and Search. Sign up for the preview at developers.google.com/connected-apps, knowing Google is adding more developers and markets over the coming months.
