Google launches its AI story app in India, supporting 13 languages

Google has launched its experimental Dreambeans app in India, its first market outside the US, aiming to bring AI-generated personal stories to more users. The expansion matters because it tests whether people will use stories drawn from their activity across Google services, and whether the format appeals in a large, multilingual market.

Available on Android and iOS, Dreambeans supports 13 Indian languages, but generates stories in only one language at a time. It has recorded nearly 55,000 US downloads since June, with downloads falling 84% month on month to about 5,500 in October. The app can use information from connected Google services such as Gmail, Photos and Search; users can choose which services to connect and delete their Dreambeans data.
