Gemini Live Screen Sharing Now Free for Android Users

2025-04-17

Google has recently announced that the screen sharing feature of its Gemini Live app is now available for free to all Android users. Previously, this feature was only accessible to Pixel 9 and Samsung Galaxy S25 users through the Gemini app and required a Gemini Advanced subscription.

Gemini Live's screen sharing feature leverages AI technology to identify and respond to both camera and screen content. The feature was officially launched earlier this month, with Google initially stating it would "soon" be available to all Android users but as a paid subscription. Now, Google has shifted its strategy and decided to offer this feature for free to all Android users.

On the social media platform X, Google mentioned that they have received positive feedback on the Gemini Live screen sharing feature, prompting them to expand its user base. Starting today, the feature will gradually roll out to all Android users via the Gemini app and is expected to achieve full coverage in the coming weeks. Users can learn how to use the feature by watching a video released by Google, which shows a user at an aquarium using their phone camera while Gemini identifies animals and shares relevant information.

In related news, Microsoft also announced that its similar AI tool, Copilot Vision, is now available for free in the Edge browser.
