Google first announced Gemini Live during its Pixel 9 launch event last month, but until now it was only available to Gemini Advanced subscribers. Similar to ChatGPT's voice chat feature, you can ask Gemini Live questions out loud and even interrupt it mid-sentence. There are also several different voices to choose from.
As noted by 9to5Googleyou can access the feature by selecting the new waveform icon in the bottom right corner of the app or overlay. This will turn on the microphone so you can ask Gemini Live a question. At the bottom of the screen, you'll see options to “hold” Gemini's response or “end” the conversation.
Gemini Live is currently only available in English, but Google says it will be available on iOS and support more languages in the future.
