Gemini Live Could Soon Enhance Your Android Auto Experience

So far, we’ve seen Google add Gemini to Android devices and Google services, but that’s far from Google’s goal of expanding Gemini across its ecosystem. It looks like the next service in the line to receive Gemini will be Android Auto.

Android Autois all set to get a taste of Gemini Live, a part of the Gemini Advanced subscription tier. Yes, Gemini could soon replace Google Assistant on Android Auto, and the strings found in the latest Android Auto Beta APK confirm the same.

In the latest Android Auto Beta v12.8.143544,Android Authority‘s Assemble Debug spotted a monochrome Gemini icon asset, indicating there might be initial Gemini support already shipping in Android Auto.

Besides, they also found a string “gearhead_assistant_action_Kitt_live_query” with the value “Start Conversation.” The values “Live” and “Conversation” indicate that we’re quite possibly looking at a Gemini Live integration of sorts. Besides, AssembleDebug also found aGeminiLiveAssistantActionfunction inside the app, further cementing the claim.

The presence of Gemini in Android Auto Beta makes us wonder if Google will completely replace Google Assistant on Android Auto (which works phenomenally well in our experience). Gemini Live is a part of the Gemini Advanced subscription. So, it’s unclear if Google will replace Assistant with Gemini Live for free or include only basic Gemini instead.

What are your thoughts on Gemini Live coming to Android Auto? Let us know in the comments below. If you want to be one of the first people to try out Gemini on Android Auto when the feature starts rolling out, get the latest Android Auto beta APK fromhere.
