Google is planning a major change for Android phones.
Users currently have google Assistant and gemini as AI helper options.
Reports from Android Authority suggest google is preparing to remove google Assistant entirely.
The latest gemini app contains code indicating this upcoming switch.
Many features previously exclusive to google Assistant have already been integrated into Gemini.
This signals that google is gradually preparing users to rely on gemini instead.
Gemini’s Interface and Features
Google is updating gemini with new tools and design enhancements.
New features may include:
A processing animation while gemini is responding.
Messages that don’t fully display at first, with a button to expand text.
A button to jump to the bottom of long chat threads.
These changes aim to improve Gemini’s usability and user experience.
Overall, the updates suggest a shift toward making gemini the primary assistant while phasing out google Assistant.
Gemini AI Built Deeper Into Android
Gemini is being integrated more deeply into Android, supporting everyday phone tasks.
Potential uses include:
Searching the web
Sending messages
Managing apps and settings
Writing, translating, and answering questions
Guiding users within apps
Current AI features on Android include:

Future updates may make gemini even more central to Android phones, acting as a smart, built-in helper.
Implications for Users
Phones may feel “smarter” and easier to use with Gemini’s expanded capabilities.
Long-time google Assistant users will need to adjust to its removal.
The transition represents one of the biggest potential updates to Android’s user experience in years.
