Gemini Nano lets you complete helpful AI tasks without needing a network connection.

And now there’s a model built for maximum efficiency on Pixel devices. It’s called Gemini Nano, and it’s already bringing high-powered features to Pixel devices – plus, there’s much more in the works.

The Google Tensor G4 chip in Pixel 9 devices powers our latest Gemini Nano model, which helps features like Pixel Studio, Call Notes, and Pixel  Screenshots² to be available offline – meaning you don’t need an internet or cellular connection to make the AI magic happen. 

Summarize in the Recorder app uses Gemini Nano to take your recorded conversations, interviews, presentations, lectures – any speech, really – and build a digestible summary of the main points.³

Cool, right? Even better, it lets you skip the lengthy task of transcribing or listening through your recordings. Playing, rewinding, typing notes, powering through irrelevant sections of the recording –  with Pixel, you simply never have to do these again.

Imagine how much more you can get done when you free up all that time.

If you have a Pixel 6 or newer, you’ve probably noticed Magic Compose in your Google Messages app. It can transform what you write into different styles.

Thanks to the power of Gemini Nano, Magic Compose no longer requires an internet or cellular connection. So if you and your phone are in a place where coverage or Wi-Fi is lacking, you can still be the best texter in your thread.

Gemini Nano with Multimodality – available on Pixel 9 series phones – will enable your phone to understand information in contexts other than text, like images, sounds, and spoken language. And it’s only getting better at understanding your world. 

One example of these multimodal capabilities is the TalkBack accessibility feature. It’s available on Android and helps people who are blind or have low vision interact with their devices using touch and spoken feedback. On average, TalkBack users come across 90 unlabeled images per day. Gemini Nano will help provide more vivid descriptions – like more details about what’s in a photo sent by family or friends, or the style and cut of clothes when you’re shopping online. Since Gemini Nano runs on device, these descriptions are available even when you don’t have a network or cellular connection. 

Here’s another potential use case: detecting suspicious financial activity and fraud. Scams are a global problem, with losses exceeding $1 trillion in a single year according to the 2023 Global State of Scams Report by the Global Anti-Scam Alliance.⁴

Gemini Nano empowers your Pixel to help combat this threat with real-time scam detection during calls. Your phone can use on-device processing to identify conversation patterns commonly associated with scammers, such as a “bank representative” urgently requesting fund transfers, gift card payments, or personal information like PINs and passwords. In these instances, you’ll receive an immediate alert. 

This protection is made possible by Pixel’s robust security architecture, which includes the Google Tensor G4 chip and the certified Titan M2 security chip – the same technology used to protect Google Cloud data centers – offering multiple layers of hardware security.

On top of that, Pixel uses powerful privacy tech to keep information and conversations secure in features such as Scam Detection and health data processing in the Digital Wellbeing app processed directly on your device. Scam Detection in calls and messages arrived on Pixel phones during March Pixel Drop.⁵
