Google switched Gemini to compute-based usage limits that refresh every 5 hours. Here's how to check your Gemini usage limits and understand when your limit resets, and what happens when you hit the cap.
If you hit your usage limit, switch to the Fast model to continue chatting immediately, or wait for your 5-hour refresh. Pro and Ultra subscribers get significantly higher allowances. No extensions or workarounds needed.
How to Check Your Gemini Usage Limits:
1. Open Gemini and click the Settings gear icon (bottom-left corner).
2. Click on the new Usage limits option.
3. Check your live dashboard to see your usage percentage and your 5-hour refresh countdown timer!
