Gemini is getting its very own Android widget
The more ways to access Gemini, the better, right?
- Gemini is getting its very own Android widget.
- The widget offers a shortcut to Gemini, file upload options, and Gemini Live.
- If you’re tight on space, you can shrink that down to just Gemini and Live, or even a Gemini shortcut alone.
The start of May is just hours away, and from here on out it’s just a matter of days until Google I/O 2025 kicks off. This year’s shaping up to be a bit different than it’s looked in years past, with Android not necessarily taking a back burner to Google’s current AI interests, but getting its own special pre-I/O event. Even with all this about to happen just over the horizon, Google’s not about to sit around waiting for a few more weeks, and is already rolling out a very welcome addition to Gemini.
Android widgets offer some fantastically handy ways to quickly get to the app features you use the most, straight from your phone’s home screen. We recently took a look at some changes in the works for Google’s widgets for Keep and Calendar, but today we’ve got one better, as 9to5Google spots the arrival of a new widget just for Gemini.
