Explore AI on Android with Our Sample Catalog App

Posted by Thomas Ezan and Ivy Knight

As the AI landscape continues to expand, we often hear that developers aren't always sure where to start and which API or SDK is best for their use case.

So we wanted to provide you with examples of AI-enabled features using both on-device and Cloud models and inspire you to create delightful experiences for your users.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the redesigned Android AI Sample Catalog, a dedicated application designed to inspire and educate Android developers to build the next generation of AI-powered Android apps.

Discover what's possible with Google AI

The Android AI Sample Catalog is designed as a one-stop destination to explore the capabilities of Google AI APIs and SDKs. Inside, you'll find a collection of samples demonstrating a wide range of AI use cases that you can test yourself. We really designed this catalog to give you a hands-on feel for what you can build and help you find the right solution and capability for your needs.

Here are some of the samples you can find in the catalog:

Image generation with Imagen

Uses Imagen to generate images of landscapes, objects and people in various artistic styles.

On-device summarization with Gemini Nano

Lets you summarize text on-device using Gemini Nano via the GenAI Summarization API.

Chat with Nano Banana

A chatbot app using the Gemini 3 Pro Image model (a.k.a. "Nano Banana Pro") letting you edit images via a conversation with the model.

On-device image description with Gemini Nano

Lets you generate image descriptions using Gemini Nano via the GenAI Image Description API.

Other samples include: image editing via Imagen mask-editing capabilities, a to-do list app controlled via the voice using the Gemini Live API, on-device rewrite assistance powered by Gemini Nano, and more!

The samples using cloud inference are built using the Firebase AI Logic SDK, and the ML Kit GenAI API is used for the samples running on-device inference. We plan to continue creating new samples and updating the existing ones as new capabilities are added to the models and SDKs.

Fully open source and ready to copy

We believe the best way to learn is by doing. That's why the AI Sample Catalog is not only fully open-source but it’s been architectured so the code relevant to the AI features is self-contained and easy to copy and paste, so you can quickly experiment with these code samples in your own project.

When you're exploring a sample in the app and want to see how it's built, you can simply click the <> SOURCE button to jump directly to the code on GitHub.



To help you get started quickly, each sample includes a README file that highlights the APIs used, along with key code snippets.



Note: To run the samples using the Firebase AI Logic SDK, you’ll need to set up a Firebase AI project. Also, the samples using ML Kit Gen AI APIs powered by Gemini Nano are only supported on certain devices.

We also put extra thought into the app's user interface to make your learning experience more engaging and intuitive. We've refreshed the app with a bold new brand that infuses the Android look with an expressive AI design language. Most notably, the app now features a vibrant, textured backdrop for the new Material 3 expressive components, giving you a modern and enjoyable environment to explore the samples and dive into the code. The systematic illustrations, inspired by generated image composition, further enhance this polished, expressive experience.



Check out the Android AI Sample Catalog today, test the features, and dive into the code on GitHub to start bringing your own AI-powered ideas to life!

Google Meet translated captions now available in Cantonese

What’s happening

We are enhancing the translated captions feature in Google Meet by adding support for Cantonese. This update makes it easier for users to communicate and collaborate across different languages.

For your end users, this means that if a meeting attendee is speaking in Cantonese, or another supported language, Meet can now display real-time translated captions to the language of their choice. This is particularly helpful in large, global organizations or educational institutions where participants may speak different primary languages. Adding Cantonese support ensures smoother communication, better meeting accessibility, and more inclusive participation for teams working in diverse linguistic environments.

This feature allows teams to connect and collaborate more easily, ensuring all voices are heard and understood regardless of location or native language.


Getting started

Availability

This feature is available for the following Google Workspace editions:

  • Business Standard
  • Business Plus
  • Enterprise Standard
  • Enterprise Plus
  • Google AI Pro for Education

Choose your preferred caption language for Meet live streams on mobile devices

What’s changing

Google Meet live stream viewers can select their own preferred language for translated captions on mobile devices. Individual language selection helps overcome language barriers during presentations and events, maximizing each viewer's potential to understand and engage with the content being shared.

Previously, Meet live streams were broadcast to mobile devices with a single target language set for captions, selected by the host when starting the live stream. Now, viewers independently select their own preferred language for translated captions and can also change this setting while watching the live stream.


Choose your preferred caption language for Meet live streams on mobile devices 

Getting started

  • Admins: There is no admin control for this feature.
  • End users: End users can turn translated captions on or off and select their preferred language. Visit the Help Center to learn more about translated captions.

Rollout pace

Availability

  • All Google Workspace customers can select their preferred language for captions. Only users with eligible licenses can host live streams.

New to Gmail: share emails in Google Chat

What’s changing

We’re launching a new integration between Gmail and Google Chat designed to improve team collaboration and productivity. With this feature, you can easily share a conversation from your Gmail inbox to a Chat direct message or space. No need to start your chat conversation with, "Did you see the email I forwarded?" or dig through your inbox to find the message being discussed.

Starting from a Gmail thread, you can initiate a chat with the existing email recipients, a subset, or a new group. The email is automatically forwarded and recipients can open it directly from a link in Chat.

This enables you to switch to Chat for active discussion while preserving the connection to the original message. Two-way linking helps ensure that everyone has the full context they need for a productive discussion and reduces the need to jump between tabs.

This feature is helpful in common scenarios such as:

  • Resolving an issue in real time instead of going back and forth over email
  • Chatting about an email with a subset of the original group before responding
  • Discussing a customer email with coworkers
  • Signal boosting an announcement by company leadership 
  • Sharing meetings notes and action items

  • End users: This feature will be on by default for users who have Chat enabled in Gmail, available on desktop at launch and on mobile soon (currently available in limited testing on mobile for selected users). Visit the Help Center to learn more about how to share in Chat from Gmail.
