   Google app teardown points to a possible offline mode for Gemini Live

   Android Authority found strings in Google app version 17.71.17 for Android describing an offline mode that would let users run Gemini Live without an internet connection. The implementation remains unclear, including whether it would use Gemini Nano, retain camera and screen sharing, or perform more slowly or less accurately than the cloud-based service.

   Google is rolling out a redesigned Gemini Live interface in the stable Android Google app, version 17.68. A new plus button opens a carousel for screen sharing, photos, files, and Drive, replacing the previous requirement to add items through the Gemini overlay before starting a live session. 9to5Google says the menu is unavailable when Gemini Live is launched from the overlay and is not yet available on iOS.

   Samsung unveils Galaxy Buds On, its first open-ear earbuds, with Gemini Live support

   Samsung announced the Galaxy Buds On on October 20, its first open-ear, clip-on earbuds, priced at 299,000 won (about $225) and due in South Korea on October 27 in black only, with overseas availability not yet announced. Samsung told The Elec the buds pair a TwinBoost speaker system with two identical bass drivers with three microphones and a bone-conduction vibration sensor, using machine learning to separate the user's voice from background noise. Connected to a Galaxy AI phone or tablet they can launch Gemini Live by voice and respond to head gestures such as a nod to answer a call, and Samsung says AI optimization and 4D simulation were used in development to improve ergonomics.

   Gemini Live mobile UI may get a redesigned waveform and mute icon

   An Android Authority APK teardown found that Google is testing an updated interface for Gemini Live, centered on a redesigned waveform animation at the bottom of the screen. The company is also testing a new speaker icon in the top-right corner that would likely let users silence Gemini's voice output without lowering the system-wide volume. The interface is still a work in progress and currently lacks features such as video and screen sharing; Google has separately been reported to be working on an ephemeral video mode and keyboard input for Gemini Live.
