With Gemini, Google is infusing powerful AI capabilities into Android, transforming how billions of users interact with their devices in a private and secure manner. From data center infrastructure to the operating system and devices themselves, AI is being seamlessly integrated at every layer of Android. Our vision is to make AI naturally fit into daily life, and there’s no better place to experience that than on your Android phone.
By building AI into the core of Android through Gemini, we’re redefining what smartphones can do. Continue reading to discover how we’re partnering with key players to deliver Gemini’s capabilities to Android users worldwide, all while prioritizing privacy and security.
New Ways to Experience Gemini on Android
We’ve revamped the assistant experience with Gemini, enabling more natural conversations, as though you’re talking to another person. Gemini understands your intent, follows your thought process, and handles complex tasks effortlessly. With deep integration into the Android OS, Gemini is now even more capable.
Starting today, you can access Gemini’s overlay directly on top of the app you’re using to ask questions or get additional information. For instance, you can inquire about the details of a YouTube video or generate images, which you can drag and drop into apps like Gmail and Google Messages.
In addition, we’re introducing Gemini Live, a mobile conversational experience. Gemini Live allows you to engage in more dynamic interactions — ask intricate questions, explore new ideas, or even brainstorm career opportunities based on your qualifications. Rolling out in English to Gemini Advanced subscribers on Android today, Gemini Live will soon expand to support more languages.
Google-Level Security for Your Privacy
No matter how you use Gemini, your privacy and security are our top priority. With your consent, Gemini helps you connect personal data with Google’s vast knowledge base to provide tailored assistance. For example, it can help you create a personalized workout routine based on an email from your trainer, or use your resume stored in Google Drive to craft a professional bio. Only Gemini integrates these features with a secure, all-in-one solution, without sharing your data with third-party AI providers.
Android, as the first mobile OS with an on-device multimodal AI model — Gemini Nano — ensures that sensitive tasks are processed directly on your phone. For instance, with the Pixel 9, you can use Call Notes to summarize a conversation or leverage Pixel Screenshots to save and organize images. Whether processed in the cloud or on your device, your data remains protected within Google’s secure architecture.
Gemini at Android’s Scale
Gemini is the most widely available AI assistant, supporting 45 languages across more than 200 countries and territories, and we’re continuously expanding. Available on hundreds of devices, Gemini is optimized for all Android form factors — from smartphones to foldables.
On devices like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6, Gemini enhances multitasking with a multi-window, split-screen experience. On the motorola razr+, you can access Gemini from the external display to summarize emails without even opening the phone. And, because Gemini is supported on existing devices, your Android phone will continue to improve over time.
Wherever you are, Gemini is just a tap away. On Samsung devices, swipe up from the corner to activate Gemini. On supported Pixel and other Android phones, simply hold down the power button to bring Gemini to life.
Stay tuned for more AI-powered updates, including Circle to Search’s new share feature, which allows you to circle a selection and share it instantly. These features and more will roll out to supported Android devices over the next month. And for the full experience, explore what’s new in the latest Pixel 9 series.
