Google announced that more phones will receive Gemini Intelligence, expanding beyond the Pixel 11 lineup to the Pixel 10, the upcoming Motorola Signature 27, and several Samsung Galaxy foldables and flagship phones. Gemini Intelligence in Android Auto is reserved for certain Pixel phones, offering the ability to gather information from apps and surface it to the car’s infotainment screen. Users can set up the Gemini app to access the feature, which is available in select countries to users aged eighteen and older. The assistant can complete cross‑app tasks while driving, such as reminding users to buy a birthday card or suggesting the fastest route to a dentist appointment. This update highlights Google’s strategy of offering advanced AI features first to Pixel owners while gradually expanding availability to other manufacturers.
