Discover new ways to harness the power of Gemini

You get a more capable mobile assistant with Gemini on Android that offers contextual assistance based on what’s on your screen. Additionally, Gemini is now readily available on your Samsung devices with just a side button push.

Gemini extensions enable you to swiftly finish tasks by connecting to services and apps on your smartphone. There are new Gemini Extensions for Samsung Reminder, Samsung Calendar, Samsung Notes, and Samsung Clock in addition to Google Maps, YouTube, Google Messages, Spotify, and more. This implies that you can ask Gemini to remind you, save a note, or inform you of an impending appointment.

You may now ask Gemini to perform several tasks across apps and services with a single prompt. For instance, Gemini may link to Google Maps to identify the ideal locations and create a ready-to-send text message using Google Messages if you’re looking for outdoor eateries in your area and want to share the alternatives with a buddy.

With real-time, spoken responses, Gemini Live is a conversational experience that facilitates ideation, simplifies difficult subjects, and helps you prepare for crucial situations. As of right now, Gemini Live is becoming more multimodal, contextual, and personal for you by allowing you to add files, photos, and YouTube videos to the chat.

Use the Galaxy S25’s Now Bar to be informed about sports and directions

The Now Bar on the Galaxy S25 delivers pertinent updates directly to your lock screen. The Galaxy S25’s Now Bar, which brings important match updates about the teams you follow on Google directly to your lock screen, will make sure sports fans are aware of every development. You may follow live with scores and more with just a quick look at your phone to see when a match is underway. To learn more, just tap the card to get Google Search news, statistics, and viewpoints.

Additionally, you may save time and maintain your schedule by using Google Maps in the Now Bar. When you’re on the road, you can quickly view directions and receive timely updates about events, such as when to leave for an appointment based on traffic conditions.

Use Circle to Search’s one-tap actions and AI Overviews to obtain additional useful information

Google introduced Circle to Search last year, which allows you to search anything on your phone without switching between apps.

In order to give you a quick and easy overview of the material related to your search along with links to further online resources, Google is now extending AI Overviews to even more visual searches on Circle to Search. You can find what you need more quickly and easily by circling an image of a famous meal, a landmark, or a rare antique you spotted online. You will receive an AI Overview for more responses.

Additionally, Circle to Search now offers one-tap actions, making it simpler to complete tasks on your phone. Circle to Search recognises URLs, email addresses, and phone numbers on your screen automatically. To make a call, send an email, or visit a website, just tap the chip that shows up.

Take advantage of enhanced braille display and hearing aid experiences on Android

Google has introduced LE audio features, the next generation of Bluetooth, to Galaxy S25 smartphones for those who are hard of hearing or deaf. When linked with a Galaxy S25 device running Android 15, this update allows hands-free calling, simple personalised audio settings, and a low-latency connection to GN Hearing and Oticon Intent hearing aids.

Additionally, TalkBack 15 on Galaxy S25 smartphones will now work with braille displays that employ HID, a common method of connecting to Bluetooth devices, for those who are blind or have impaired eyesight. This compatibility will guarantee that users may utilise their braille displays without extra procedures, further increasing the accessibility of Galaxy S25 smartphones in response to community feedback. With the help of Gemini models, TalkBack on Galaxy S25 devices will also offer more thorough image descriptions in the upcoming weeks.

Use the Galaxy Watch for Kids experience to stay in touch

Parents may set up and control Galaxy Watch7 LTE smartwatches with a Galaxy Watch for Kids experience using their phone and Google Family Link. This enables parents to manage apps, approve contacts, keep an eye on the whereabouts of their child’s watch, and establish school time to reduce distractions throughout the school day.

Major providers including AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon are supporting this upgrade, which begins rolling out in the United States today.
