Google switched to compute-based usage limits for Gemini right after I/O 2026. As part of the change, it rolled out 5-hour and weekly usage quotas. This was a drastic change from Gemini’s previous prompt-based limits, with many users finding them too restrictive. There have also been complaints from users about exhausting their quota with just a few commands. Following all the criticism and feedback, Google is now tweaking Gemini usage limits to make it last longer.
