Google will soon integrate Gemini into its Messages, Maps, and Android Auto app. Wear OS can also expect an AI update.
At Mobile World Congress 2024 in Barcelona announces Google has introduced a number of innovations with a focus on artificial intelligence. The new smart features are coming to Android smartphones and wearables running Wear OS, the search giant's own operating system.
Gemini, Google's AI assistant, will soon creep into the Messages app. This allows you to have the AI write messages or exchange ideas with the assistant and other tasks within the app.
Docs is also getting an AI injection that can convert handwritten notes into text or simply leave them handwritten.
Android Auto will soon be able to summarize long messages thanks to Gemini. The AI assistant can also summarize several short messages for you in a group chat, so you can focus on the road. The new feature also suggests quick replies you can send with one tap, such as your estimated time of arrival.
Finally, Wear OS will now have access to Google Wallet. This allows you to view useful documents like your boarding passes or concert tickets on your compatible smartwatch. Wear OS can now also navigate with you and display information about public transportation in collaboration with Google Maps.
