April 2025 Pixel Drop: Gemini Live Enhancements

The April 2025 Pixel Drop brings exciting updates to the Pixel ecosystem, with Gemini Live taking center stage. This innovative feature now includes camera and screen-sharing capabilities, allowing users to interact with their devices in dynamic new ways. For example, you can point your camera at objects or landmarks, and Gemini Live will provide real-time information or assistance. Similarly, the screen-sharing feature lets you get contextual help based on what’s displayed on your screen.

These features are available for free on the Pixel 9 series, including the upcoming Pixel 9a, without requiring a Gemini Advanced subscription. This makes the Pixel 9a an even more attractive option for users looking for cutting-edge technology at a budget-friendly price.

Additionally, the Gemini Live Astra camera, powered by Project Astra, is designed to enhance user experience by offering interactive conversations based on what the camera sees. Whether you’re exploring an aquarium or choosing a pottery glaze, Gemini Live can provide insights and suggestions in real time.

The Pixel Drop also includes updates for other devices, such as scam detection on Wear OS for Pixel Watch users. These features are gradually rolling out across all regions and languages supported by Gemini.
