" including sharing benefits with up to five family members,"
I have yet to find that anywhere mentioned on the google pages. And my family members are not able to use the gemini access I have. Could please mention where that is coming from?

According to Gemini:

Unfortunately, you can't directly share your Gemini Advanced access with family members, even if they're part of your Google One family plan.

Here's why:

* **Gemini Advanced is tied to the main Google One account holder.** Only the person who manages the Google One plan with the AI Premium (2TB) tier can access Gemini Advanced.
* **No separate logins or sub-accounts.** Gemini doesn't currently offer a way to create separate logins or sub-accounts for family members within a Google One plan.

**However, there's a temporary exception:**

* **Family members can currently enjoy Gemini Advanced features until June 30, 2025, at no extra charge.** This is a promotional period, and it's unclear whether this sharing will continue beyond that date.

**Alternatives:**

* **Family members can create their own Google Accounts and use the free version of Gemini.** This will give them access to the basic features of Gemini.
* **You can share the outputs of your Gemini Advanced interactions with your family.** For example, you can copy and paste text, export images, or share summaries of your conversations.

**Keep in mind:**

* Google may change its policies regarding Gemini Advanced access in the future.
* It's always a good idea to check the latest information on the Google One and Gemini websites.

I hope this helps!
