Google has opened its new free gemini live feature to use to all Android smartphones users.
Last week, Google deployed Gemini Live with the sharing of the camera and the screen as part of a drop of otherwise skinny pixels.
The only taking here was that it was only available for the owners of Pixel 9 and Samsung Galaxy S25. Google said it would happen soon on Android, but only for those who have an advanced Gemini paid subscription.
Free for all (Android users)
Google has now announced that the feature will be available for free for all Android users with the Gemini application.
“We have heard good comments on Gemini Live with the camera and screen sharing, so we decided to bring them to more people,” said Google to X (formerly Twitter).
“From today and in the coming weeks, we deploy it to all Android users with the Gemini application. Appreciate!”
What is Gemini Live with the sharing of the camera and the screen?
Gemini Live with the camera sharing and the screen allows you to show Gemini Ai from Google what you look at via the camera of the phone or share what is on your screen. You can then ask a question or get advice on what is in sight.
The example of Google video shows a woman in an aquarium that points to the camera on her pixel phone on a shark and asks Gemini “what kind of shark is it?”. The AI assistant of Google obliges duly with a natural spiel but well informed of the creature in front of it.
That said, Gemini, the fish enthusiast is then able to scan towards another occupant of the reservoir in front of her and to say “what about black and yellow” and “and who is this guy?”, And does the Gemini lack a beat.
This is a new undeniably cool feature, so it's great news that many more people will be able to try it for free via the Gemini application.
