Conduct in-depth two-way conversations with Gemini Live

What’s changing

The Gemini mobile app now supports voice conversations for Google Workspace users. The “Live” feature leverages Gemini’s multi-modal capabilities allowing you to ask questions and receive spoken responses in a selection of natural-sounding voices. You can even interrupt Gemini to ask clarifying questions or change the topic mid-response, providing a more intuitive and conversational experience. A few ways you can use Gemini Live are:

  • Talk back and forth: brainstorm with Gemini to come up with ideas for a new marketing campaign, strategy for a sales meeting with a new prospect, or potential thesis topic
  • Explore: discuss potential features for a new product or questions for a research paper
  • Practicing aloud: practice and receive feedback on a sales pitch or a class presentation
  • Share your camera or screen: turn on your camera or share your screen to show Gemini what you see and talk about it.
  • Bring context to conversations: add a specific image, file, or YouTube video.

Additional details

  • Gemini Live is available for users 18+.
  • For users with a work or school Google Account and access to the Gemini app, Gemini Apps Activity is on and can’t be turned off and you can’t delete your Gemini Apps activity.
    • Your Gemini Apps Activity includes activity from the Gemini web app and the mobile app. When you delete your chats with Gemini for Workspace inside a Workspace app, this does not delete any information that is saved to your Gemini Apps Activity.
    • Currently, if you use the Gemini web app or mobile app with your work or school account, your Gemini Apps Activity is turned on and your conversation history is retained for 18 months.
    • Important: For work users who have access to Gemini Apps as an additional service, while Gemini Apps Activity is on, Google collects your Gemini Apps conversations and other information you provide to improve and develop Google products and services and machine-learning technologies. Visit the Help Center to learn more.
