**[TechCrunch](https://daily.dev/sources/tc)** · 3 min read · 3 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Google has expanded Gemini Spark, its agentic AI assistant, to macOS via the existing Gemini desktop app. The update brings file management capabilities, real-time topic tracking, and new app integrations including Google Tasks, Google Keep, Canva, Dropbox, Instacart, OpenTable, and Zillow Rentals. Custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) support is also rolling out, enabling users to connect their own apps. The macOS beta is currently limited to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. Future updates will allow users to assign multi-step tasks from their phones to the desktop agent.

## Questions this post answers

### What's new in the Gemini Spark macOS release compared to when it first launched?

The macOS beta adds integration with Google Tasks and Keep, which were missing at launch and cited as a frustration point. It also adds real-time topic tracking (sports scores, stock movements, news), third-party app connections including Canva, Dropbox, Instacart, OpenTable, and Zillow Rentals, and support for custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) connections. Access is limited to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S.

_Developers tracking agentic assistant rollouts can follow Gemini Spark's expansion on daily.dev._

### Can Gemini Spark on Mac work with files on my computer?

Yes, the macOS beta of Gemini Spark can sort and organize local files and use them as a source for new Google Workspace docs or spreadsheets, such as turning invoices into a budgeting worksheet. Remote task handling and the ability to trigger the desktop agent from a phone are planned but not yet available at launch.

_Anyone evaluating desktop AI agents for file-based workflows can compare options like Gemini Spark on daily.dev._

### Does Gemini Spark support the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

Yes, Google is rolling out support for custom MCP connections in Gemini Spark, allowing users to connect their own apps directly into the assistant to build a more tailored agent experience, beyond the built-in integrations like Canva, Dropbox, Instacart, OpenTable, and Zillow Rentals.

_Developers building custom MCP integrations can keep up with agent platform support on daily.dev._
