Google has confirmed that you’ll need Gemini Advanced to use the most useful Gemini Live AI video features like screen sharing.
Early last month, I wrote about how Google was starting to roll out the newest Gemini Live features, including screen sharing and live video. Originally codenamed Project Astra, the features have slowly become available across multiple Android devices. But, if you were hoping to get open access to the newest Gemini Live AI video features, Google has news: you’ll need to pay for a Gemini Advanced subscription to use them.
That’s right, a new support document about the features—which Google claims are still rolling out to new Android devices slowly—will require an Android device running Android 10 or later and a Gemini Advanced subscription.
