Gemini Live’s camera and screen-sharing features, once exclusive to Gemini Advanced subscribers and a few flagship models like the Galaxy S25 series, are now rolling out free to all Android users. Announced today, this feature will let you chat with Gemini about what’s on your screen or in front of you (through your camera), making your phone a smarter sidekick. The rollout will be completed over the next few weeks.
A feature to show AI exactly what you’re talking about
Gemini Live, Google’s conversational AI, just got a major upgrade. Last week, camera and screen sharing started hitting Advanced subscribers. Now, Google is opening the doors to everyone with an Android device to experience this feature. If the demonstrations are anything to go by, it’s a very convenient feature to have on your phone.
Want to learn more about a recipe you’re scrolling through or a weird plant you spotted? Just tap the “Share screen with Live” chip in the Gemini overlay, confirm, and you’re all set for a quick conversation where Gemini sees exactly what you’re talking about. A little counter pops up in your status bar, and you can stop sharing anytime via the notification shade. Samsung announced a similar feature called “Real-Time Visual AI” just a few days ago for its 2025 flagships.
For camera sharing, head to the fullscreen Gemini Live interface and hit the camera button. A viewfinder opens, letting you switch between front and rear lenses. Google suggests steady movements for the best results, and your screen needs to stay active for video capture.
It’s a bold move to make AI more accessible, and we’re excited to see how Android users put these tools to work.
