The Gemini app supports custom MCP servers through its Custom apps feature (rolled out starting June 29, 2026), which lets you add Tempreon by URL on gemini.google.com, so Gemini can load your Core Imprint, search your knowledge, and remember what it learns while it works for you.
Quick path: gemini.google.com → Settings → Connected Apps → Custom apps → Add a custom app → paste the Tempreon URL → authorize. If Connected Apps isn't listed under Settings, open Personal Intelligence first — Google now nests it there.
Availability note (as of September 2026): Google lists custom apps as needing a personal Google account (not work or school), an age of 18 or over, a US location, English, and "Keep Activity" turned on. Google's custom-apps page lists no subscription. Gemini Spark is listed separately and does require a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription, so a custom app driving a Spark workflow needs that part. The two requirement lists have drifted apart: Spark now runs wherever Gemini Apps are supported except the EEA, Nigeria, Switzerland and the UK, and in all Gemini Apps languages, while custom apps still read US and English — so Spark reaching your region doesn't mean custom apps have. If you don't see the option, work down this list first. If Gemini isn't an option for you today, the same Google models are available with full Tempreon support in Google Antigravity — generally available, with a free tier.
Prerequisites
- A Google account that meets Google's custom-apps requirements: personal (not work or school), 18 or over, in the US, English, with Keep Activity on. A Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription is what grants Gemini Spark access, if you want the custom app to drive Spark workflows (see the availability note above)
- A Tempreon account with at least one available Bridge slot
- A computer — custom apps are added on the web, not in the mobile app (once connected, Spark uses them on mobile too)
Step-by-Step Setup
1. Open Connected Apps
- On a computer, go to gemini.google.com
- At the bottom, click Settings
- Click Connected Apps. If you don't see it there, click Personal Intelligence first, then Connected Apps.
2. Add Tempreon as a custom app
- Under Custom apps, select Add a custom app
- Enter the Tempreon MCP server URL:
https://api.tempreon.com/functions/v1/tempreon-mcp/mcp
- Click Next — you don't need to open "Advanced features" or enter any credentials. Tempreon supports automatic client registration, so Gemini configures itself.
3. Authorize the connection
A browser window opens with the Tempreon consent screen. Sign in to your Tempreon account if prompted, review the request, and approve. You'll be returned to Gemini with the app connected.
4. Use it in Gemini
Give Gemini a task that touches your context — it can now call Tempreon's tools as it works. Once connected on the web, the custom app is available in the Gemini mobile apps as well.
Troubleshooting
You don't see "Connected Apps" or "Custom apps". First check under Personal Intelligence — Google nests Connected Apps there in some builds. If it's still not there, work down Google's listed requirements for custom apps: a personal account (not work or school), 18 or over, in the US, English, and Keep Activity on. Google lists no subscription for custom apps themselves. Some accounts that meet every listed requirement still don't show a Custom apps section yet, and Google doesn't document why; nothing is wrong on the Tempreon side. Google Antigravity is the free way to use Gemini models with Tempreon today.
The connection fails immediately. Check the URL ends in /mcp with no trailing slash.
Authorization succeeded but nothing happens. Confirm "Keep Activity" is on in your Google account settings — custom apps are unavailable when it is off.
You're signed in with a work or school account. Custom apps are for personal Google accounts. Gemini Enterprise Business edition has its own route for MCP servers, set up by a team administrator and not yet generally available, but it asks for an OAuth client ID and secret issued in advance. Tempreon connects through automatic client registration instead, so that route doesn't fit Tempreon yet. If your organization has Gemini Code Assist Standard or Enterprise licenses, Gemini CLI connects to Tempreon today.
Try saying...
Give Spark a task like:
- "Check my Tempreon for context on [project], then draft the update."
- "Remember in Tempreon that [decision] — we chose it because [reason]."
- "Set up my Tempreon: tell me what you already know about me, save what I OK to Tempreon, then ask me a few questions to fill in the rest." — your first chat: it reads, saves what you OK, and fills the gaps
- "What does Tempreon know about me now?" — a quick end-to-end test
Frequently asked questions
- How do I authorize Tempreon in the Gemini app — do I need to enter any keys?
- No keys are needed. After you paste the Tempreon URL and click Next, a browser window opens with the Tempreon consent screen. Sign in to your Tempreon account if prompted, then review and approve the request. You are returned to Gemini with the app connected, since Tempreon's automatic client registration lets Gemini configure itself.
- Where in the Gemini app do I add the Tempreon MCP server?
- Custom apps are added on the web, not in the mobile app. On a computer, go to gemini.google.com, then at the bottom open Settings, then Connected Apps (if it isn't listed, open Personal Intelligence first, then Connected Apps), and under Custom apps choose Add a custom app. Once connected there, Tempreon is available in the Gemini mobile app as well.
- I authorized Tempreon in Gemini but nothing happens when I ask Spark to use it. What's wrong?
- Check that Keep Activity is turned on in your Google account settings. Custom apps are unavailable when it is off, so authorization can succeed while the connection stays inactive until Keep Activity is enabled. This is a Google account setting rather than anything on the Tempreon side.
