Gemini on Android may soon support the full range of Canvas creation options (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-26 18:00:02

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Earlier this year, Google Gemini introduced Canvas for working with documents. Canvas on the web allows you to create things like apps, Audio Overviews, and infographics straight from your docs. Now it looks like Google’s working to bring the same option to the Gemini mobile app. On-device AI models like Gemini Nano are very impressive for what they’re able to do within some serious hardware constraints, but when it comes to AI solutions capable of s

This Gemini UI change should’ve been the default from the start (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google could move Gemini’s AI model switcher to the bottom of your smartphone screen. This would make it easier to switch AI models with one hand compared to the current UI. Google could also bring a UI tweak to Gemini’s video menu. Google’s Gemini chatbot lets you choose between several AI models for your specific needs. You can use the flash models if you value quick, responsive answers, or the Pro models if you need more in-depth answers. Now, it

Google Gemini has a problem with self-criticism. "I am sorry for the trouble. I have failed you. I am a failure," the AI tool recently told someone who was using Gemini to build a compiler, according to a Reddit post a month ago. That was just the start.

Joe Maring / Android Authority About a month ago, Google started doing something long overdue for Wear OS: it finally began replacing Google Assistant with Gemini. As imperfect as it may be at times, Gemini is a really powerful tool. More importantly, Google Assistant on Wear OS has been showing its age for a while now.

Maybe Google Gemini needs to take some PTO. The company's large language AI model, which is increasingly spreading across Google's many services and products, has been saying some things lately that are leading users to worry: Does Gemini have low self esteem?
