- Gemini AI was spotted in Android Auto
- Right now, the answers could be more useful
- The upgrade is not yet available for everyone
Google has been busy pushing Gemini in as many of its applications and devices as possible – e -mail smartphones – and now it seems that the AI assistant is also about to make its debut on the Android Auto car dashboard platform.
The Android Authority team was able to install Google Gemini on Android Auto, although the feature does not seem to be widely available yet. It may be some time before the upgrade is officially introduced, as well as a Google ad.
It is actually a surprise that he took so long so that Gemini goes to Android Auto, since he has made his way in so many other parts of the Google ecosystem, mainly to the detriment of Google Assistant.
This early look gives us a good idea of how Gemini will integrate in the Android Auto interface, with an “ Ask Gemini ” bar appearing at the bottom of the screen by car each time you chat with the digital assistant. We will inform you as soon as Google announces an official deployment calendar.
No more work required

The Android report Authority mentions that the responses of Gemini seem “somewhat generic” and just as useful at the moment – navigation requests do not take into account your current location or different travel options, for example.
This may indicate that it is always a work in progress for Google, with more refinements on the way before it is online for everyone – after all, it is essential enough for helping AI to know where you are in the world when you use it in your vehicle.
Another area where Gemini failed in Android Authority tests was the list of food places nearby. Although he offered a long list, he did not draw the places on a card, which would be much more useful for drivers and passengers.
The Bot has been able to play Spotify songs and managed other “routine tasks”, and has managed natural conversations on all kinds of subjects – including the weather and famous monuments – just like on the web or on the mobile.
