You’re now using Gemini on your iOS device

So I got this email 10 days ago and I was a bit confused and disturbed by it. It made me wonder what I'd done different and it doesn't specify whether it was on my iphone or ipad.
Did this just go out to everyone or did I use some app/program/service that triggered it?

You’ve not given us much to go on to help you, but I would suggest you’ve downloaded the Gemini app on your phone.

I guess I was just wondering if others have seen this and perhaps knew something about it. According to Chrome it's a google app but it doesn't show up as being installed on either my iphone or ipad so it seems very odd.

It specifies IOS so that should exclude this MBP I'm typing on.

Do you use the Chrome browser on your iOS devices? If so, it’s built in now so maybe that’s why. I have the Gemini app installed and have received no such email.

I had an email from Google this week, encouraging me to give Gemini another look. I'd deleted the app some time ago. It'll be that.

You'll have used the web version previously, however briefly.

This is the most likely answer I suppose, thanks for the replies!
