With One UI 8 and a little workaround, Flip 6 owners can now use Gemini without opening their phone — though it’s still not as seamless as it could be.
Gemini is available on the cover screen of Samsung’s newest foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7. However, older models have missed that feature, and many Samsung fans have been hoping to get it. Well, now, finally, some wishes have been granted.
Now, if you want to use Gemini on the cover screen, you’ll have to use the „Hey Google“ wake-up command or add the app to Good Lock’s launcher widget.
Still, long-pressing the power button still prompts you to open the phone to continue, which is definitely making Gemini summoning less convenient than ideal. We do hope this will change with a future update, though.
Luckily, almost all of Gemini’s features work on the cover display.
