Dreambeans
Google launched its experimental AI stories app Dreambeans in India on Android and iOS, its first market outside the US, with 13 Indian languages plus English.
Dreambeans, introduced in June, uses connected Google services (Calendar, Gemini, Gmail, Photos, Search, YouTube) to generate personalized illustrated stories without a prompt. It was opened to all eligible US users aged 18 and over in September, and Google recently added Veo animation for some stories. Users can pick only one language at a time, and stories cannot mix languages.
