Google's Gemini Live launched for all Android users over the weekend. That means far more folks now have access to the AI assistant's tool that lets users live-share a video or screen.

The feature rolled out last month to Pixel 9, Galaxy S25, and Gemini Advanced subscribers before now going wide to all Android users, Android Central reported. The move was expected: Google noted earlier this month that the feature was rolling out to all Android users with the Gemini app.

The idea behind the tool is that the AI assistant sees what you see, either via your camera or on your screen. That ability, in theory, could help with any number of tasks. You could, for instance, see if Gemini could help you solve a tech problem like helping you troubleshoot a router that isn't working.

Users can simply point the camera — or scroll down — and talk to Gemini in search of answers. The tool should now be available to Android users in the Gemini app via the "Share screen with Live" button. While it's not quite built-in augmented reality, it does seem close — and certainly something interesting to test out.
