Live AI Mode<\/a> we just uncovered, this change came to out attention during analysis of the new 16.17.38.sa.arm64 beta release of the Google app for Android. Apparently Google\u2019s on a bit of a roll when it comes to all things Live, because this build also includes some early references to what sure appear to be Gemini Apps support for Live.<\/p>\n![\"gemini](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/gemini-live-extensions.jpg\"\/ "\\"gemini")

While some devs clearly didn\u2019t get the memo about the Extensions \u2192 Apps rebranding, it still seems reasonably clear what it is we\u2019re looking at here.<\/p>\n
Much like how we didn\u2019t get support for every app, all at once, when Extensions first debuted for normal Gemini, the mention of \u201cphase one\u201d here sure speaks to us that we should expect a similar, spaced-out release strategy when it comes to Gemini Apps for Live. Right now we don\u2019t have any real kind of sense for which apps might be part of that initial wave, versus those set to arrive later on, but perhaps we\u2019ll uncover some contenders as we continue to investigate Google\u2019s progress along this line.<\/p>\n
Nothing\u2019s going to be certain until we actually see Google deliver this functionality in a publicly facing way, but we have reason to be at least cautiously optimistic that this one is on pace for ultimate deployment, having previously spotted other upcoming changes in this same spot that did in fact prove to further pan out.<\/p>\n
