Since the launch of the Gemini 3 Pro and Nano Banana Pro, Google has limited access to free users in response to high demand.
When Gemini 3 Pro launched, free users (or those “without a Google AI plan”) got “up to 5 prompts per day.” This matched the Gemini 2.5 Pro Access limit before the latest model launch. Additionally, they can use Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) creation and editing with “up to 3 images per day.”
Over the past few days, Google updated the access limits. Free users are now only guaranteed “basic access”, where “daily limits may change frequently” when using ThinQ with 3 Pro.
This could be interpreted in either direction, but is most likely to occur given the industry’s general demand trend lines. Supporting this, Google has updated Nano Banana Pro access to a hard “2 images/day”, with a note explaining how: “Image creation and editing is in high demand. Limits can change frequently and will reset daily.”
Additionally, NotebookLM on Tuesday began “temporarily rolling back access” to new Nano Banana Pro-powered infographics and slide decks. Free users lost access, while “additional limitations” were implemented for Pro users.
Due to extremely high demand, we are experiencing some capacity constraints… however we plan to get everything back to normal as soon as possible!
Available as new options in the Studio tab, Infographics lets you create “high-quality, visual summaries of your sources.” Customization options include landscape, portrait, or square orientation, as well as choosing the level of detail: concise, standard, or detailed (beta). There’s a quick field to describe the style, color, and focus.
Slide decks can be used for presentations or to obtain “detailed decks for reading”.
- wide deck: A comprehensive deck with full text and descriptions, perfect for emailing or reading on your own.
- presenter slides: Clean, visual slides with key talking points to support you while speaking.
There are no changes to the Google AI Pro or Ultra usage limits in the Gemini app.
