Google has announced that the screen-sharing feature of Gemini Live, its AI-powered voice assistant, is now available for free to all Android users. This functionality allows users to share their device’s screen or camera view with Gemini Live, enabling real-time assistance and information retrieval based on on-screen content or live visuals. Previously, this feature was exclusive to Gemini Advanced subscribers, who paid a monthly fee for access.

To utilize this feature, users need to open the Gemini app, tap the Gemini Live icon, and select the camera or screen share option to begin interaction. This expansion aims to enhance user engagement by providing more interactive and context-aware assistance without the need for a subscription.

Gemini APP is available for IOS and Android at gemini.google.com
