Nano Banana 2 Lite is the fast member of Google's Gemini image family, the model Google calls Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image. Use it while you are still deciding whether the picture is the one you want.

What it is good at

Google describes Lite as the fastest, most efficient Gemini image model, built for speed. It is the place to try a prompt before you spend a keeper on Nano Banana 2 or Nano Banana Pro.

How to use it on Visxy

Write the picture in the prompt. To edit or combine pictures, attach one to four of them and name them @image1, @image2, @image3, and @image4 in the prompt.

Where it differs

Google says Lite is not the model it optimizes for many reference pictures or a long chain of edits. When the frame has to survive a close look, move to Nano Banana 2, or to Pro for studio-level precision. Nano Banana 2.1 is the newer general model in the same line.

FAQ

Is Lite only for drafts?

It is the model you open while the idea is still moving. A picture you already like, and need to hold detail, belongs on Nano Banana 2 or Pro.

Can I still attach pictures?

Yes. One to four, named @image1 onward. Google's own note is that Lite is not built around long edit chains.

How is this different from Nano Banana 2?

Same family, same way of attaching pictures. Google positions Lite as the fast, efficient model and Nano Banana 2 as the general one with pro-level results at Flash speed.
