Google Pixel 9’s Gemini AI features arriving on Samsung Galaxy
Google just launched the Pixel 9 series that packs upgraded Gemini AI. The company officially revealed that billions of Android devices will benefit from the latest upgrade. Samsung Galaxy lineup is unquestionably first in line for new Gemini AI features.
Gemini is now deeply integrated into Android to redefine what phones can do. By deeply integrating into the OS, Gemini on Android is even more powerful. It can understand your intent, follow your train of thought, and complete complex tasks.
Pixel 9 allows you to bring up Gemini’s overlay on top of the app you’re using to ask questions about what’s on your screen. It also allows you to generate images directly from the overlay and drag and drop them into Gmail or Messages.
Gemini Live
This upgrade unlocks a mobile conversational experience, which allows you to chat with Gemini about whatever’s on your mind. It is rolling out today in English to Gemini Advanced subscribers on Android, and in the coming weeks will expand to more languages.
Gemini can help create a daily workout routine based on your personal trainer’s email, or use your resume in Google Drive to write a work bio. Only Gemini can do all of this with a secure, all-in-one approach that doesn’t require a third-party AI provider.
Call Notes
With Gemini Nano on Pixel 9, you can use Call Notes to summarize audio from a phone call or Pixel Screenshots to save and organize your images. This feature processes data on-device only so you don’t need to worry about privacy.
Gemini on Samsung
The Pixel maker specifically mentioned Samsung’s latest foldable. On the Galaxy Z Fold 6, you can bring Gemini into a multi-window, split-screen experience for multitasking.
On supported Galaxy devices, you can just swipe up from the corner of the screen to bring up Gemini. On supported Pixel and other devices, just hold down the power button to activate Gemini.
In addition, Circle to Search also added a new feature that lets you circle a selection and instantly share it with others. These upgrades to Gemini will be available in the next month on your supported Android devices.
