In a big move, Google is rolling out its AI-powered Gemini Live features to all Android devices that meet the requirements, while iPhone users still have to wait. Originally, these cool features were just for Pixel 9-series and Galaxy S25-series users, but now anyone with an Android device running version 10 or later and at least 2GB of RAM can access them through the Gemini app. This is a significant change, considering these features were once part of the paid Gemini Advanced subscription.
This expansion comes on the heels of Google’s recent ‘April 2025 Pixel Drop’ and highlights the company’s focus on improving the Android user experience. The update brings interactive camera and screen sharing capabilities, helping users with everything from fashion tips to DIY project advice. To try it out, just open the Gemini App and tap the Live icon to dive into a new world of AI interaction.
While this is great news for Android users, it might ruffle some feathers among Pixel 9-series owners who previously had these features all to themselves. Google’s regular ‘Pixel Drops’ usually enhance their devices over time, but this quick shift to a wider audience might make some wonder about the exclusivity of future features.
For now, iPhone users are left in anticipation as Google hasn’t announced when or if these features will come to iOS. This move could make Android more appealing to those looking for advanced AI capabilities, giving it a leg up in the ongoing competition with Apple.
