Discover how we’re collaborating with partners to deliver the full potential of Gemini to Android users globally, all while prioritizing privacy.
New Features of Gemini on Android
Gemini introduces a completely redesigned assistant, enabling natural conversations, just like speaking with another person. It follows your thought process, understands your intent, and handles even complex tasks. With its deep integration into Android, Gemini brings unmatched capabilities.
Starting today, you can access Gemini’s overlay while using any app to ask questions about what’s on your screen. For example, you can get detailed information about a YouTube video you’re watching. You can also generate images within the overlay and drag them into apps like Gmail or Google Messages.
In addition to these features, we’re launching Gemini Live, a real-time conversational experience. Ask questions, brainstorm ideas, or even explore career options based on your skills. Gemini Live is now available in English for Gemini Advanced subscribers on Android, with more language support coming soon.
Privacy and Security with Google
No matter the task, privacy and security remain at the forefront. With your permission, Gemini connects your personal data to Google’s vast knowledge base to provide tailored assistance. For instance, Gemini can create a workout routine based on an email from your trainer or use your resume in Google Drive to draft a professional bio.
Gemini’s secure, all-in-one solution ensures your data stays safe, without relying on third-party AI providers. Additionally, with Gemini Nano, the first on-device multimodal AI model for Android, your sensitive data remains on your phone. On devices like the Pixel 9, you can summarize phone calls with Call Notes or manage images with Pixel Screenshots, all without leaving the device.
Whether processed in the cloud or on-device, your data is protected by Google’s robust, end-to-end security architecture.
Designed for Android’s Global Scale
Gemini is the world’s most widely available AI assistant, supporting 45 languages across 200+ countries and territories. It’s compatible with hundreds of phone models and optimized for Android’s many form factors, from phones to foldables. On the Galaxy Z Fold6, for instance, Gemini enhances multitasking in split-screen mode, while on the motorola razr+, you can access Gemini from the external display to quickly summarize emails without opening your phone.
Even if you’re not using the latest flagship device, Gemini is designed to continually enhance your Android experience, ensuring your phone improves over time.
Wherever you are and whatever you’re doing on Android, Gemini is always within reach. On supported Samsung devices, simply swipe up from the corner to activate Gemini, while on Pixel and other compatible devices, holding down the power button will bring it up instantly.
