The latest Google AI features on Pixel can help make everyday tasks easier.

But at Google, the future is already here. 

Groundbreaking updates now make your everyday tasks more efficient than ever before, right on Pixel. From enhanced conversations with Gemini, your built-in AI assistant, to deeper research, these new features transform how you interact with your Pixel.^1,2,3 

Imagine you’ve just been served a local speciality in a restaurant in a new city, or are looking at an unfamiliar product in a store. With Gemini Live, you can point your camera at something and get instant help understanding it.⁸ 

Gemini Live elevates your Pixel from smartphone to real-time problem solver: Identify architecture, compare products, break down complex instructions, and much more. Gemini Live uses multimodal AI to help you make sense of what’s on your screen or in your camera view, so you can interact with the world more naturally. The camera and screen sharing features are available free with all Pixel 9 phones.

Whether you’re exploring a new city, navigating a crowded train station, or just trying to figure out what may be inside that delicious-looking pastry, Gemini Live turns your phone into an instant guide and discovery tool.

Show Gemini a landmark, storefront, or even a dish on your plate, and it will function as an AI assistant and give you details about what you’re looking at. Want to know even more? Ask Gemini Live a question to dive deeper into its history, significance, and related recommendations. And as you move and your camera view changes, Gemini Live can update the information it provides, so you can understand a topic from multiple angles.

When you’re planning your next move, use Gemini Live while screen sharing your browser. Quickly pull up relevant details about places, events, or cultural highlights nearby, then have a conversation with Gemini to dive deeper, so you’re always prepared for your next adventure.

Say you’re comparing two big-screen TVs online. Instead of sorting through product reviews from multiple sources to figure out which one is best for you, just ask Gemini Live for help. 

Share your screen with Gemini Live and ask it a question like, “Which of these two TVs is best for a room that gets a lot of daylight?” Gemini Live will instantly compare relevant features, prices, and reviews, so you can make the right choice without second-guessing. 

Getting ready to mount your new TV? Add the instruction manual PDF to Gemini Live, and it will tell you which tools you need and guide you through the steps – so you don’t have to keep checking the PDF every time you get stuck.

You’ve found a delicious-looking pasta puttanesca recipe on YouTube, but it’s for two people and you’ve got a table of six to feed. You could stop and manually figure out how to triple the recipe, or simply fire up Gemini Live by holding down the power button and selecting “Talk Live about video.” Then ask it to update the ingredient list and instructions for a larger meal. 

Watching a tutorial and need more details? Just ask Gemini. It can pull out key moments, explain steps, and even highlight safety tips. No need to keep pausing and rewinding.

To access Gemini Live on Pixel 9 and other Android Premium devices, press and hold the power button, then click the Live button – the button with 3 lines next to the mic icon. Once you’re in Gemini Live, you can choose from the camera and screen sharing options at the bottom. When you want to share your screen, hold down the power button and tap the “Share screen with Live” tab. If you’re already in the Gemini Live app, tap on the screen share icon. To share your camera in Gemini Live conversations, go to the Gemini Live app, then tap the camera icon.

The world doesn’t come with a personal guide. But now your phone does. Gemini Live gives you answers, options, and hands-free help whenever you need it. No more guesswork. No more rewinding. Just ask.

Gemini Live can also talk you through the images, files, and videos you see on Pixel. Simply add an image from your camera or gallery, and Gemini Live will analyse it and answer questions about it. Watch a YouTube video, then have a conversation about it with Gemini Live. Whether you need advice on styling an event based on the venue, or help doubling a recipe, Gemini Live serves as your personal AI assistant.^1,2

With extensions, Gemini can help you complete tasks across apps like YouTube, Google Maps, Gmail, and Spotify. And now you can ask Gemini to use multiple extensions in a single prompt.⁵ For example, you can ask Gemini for some high-protein lunch recipes and then easily save them to a note directly on Google Keep, or ask Gemini for nearby activities and text them to a friend with Google Messages.

The new Gemini Deep Research feature – available to Gemini Pro subscribers – transforms your Pixel into a powerful research assistant. It helps you browse through up to hundreds of websites to generate a report with key findings, organised with links to original sources so you can learn even more. That’s hours of research at your fingertips in just minutes – perfect for students, professionals, or anyone seeking to dive deeper into any topic.³

Gemini Pro users can enjoy Gemini Deep research on Pixel. Pixel 9 Pro owners can enjoy Deep Research with the 12-month subscription to Gemini Pro included with their purchase. ⁶

Google is also improving Circle to Search with AI Overviews. Now when you circle, highlight, or tap on your screen, you’ll start seeing more AI Overviews for places, trending images, unique objects, and more. ⁷

AI Overviews use generative AI to provide a snapshot of helpful information about your search with links to dig deeper and learn more from the web. It’s like having a knowledgeable friend explaining exactly what you need to know about what you see on your phone.

Quickly get the info you need with AI Overviews, then get right back to what you’re doing.

Circle to Search is also making it easier to take action on your pictures and screenshots by recognising phone numbers, email addresses, and URLs. Simply tap to start a call, compose an email, or open the website.

Ready to put all these AI advancements to work for you? Head to the Pixel 9 page on the Google Store to buy or learn more.

Note: Some features may be gradually rolled out and availability may vary by region and device model.
