Google’s AI assistant, Gemini, is gaining a new feature that simplifies communication by allowing users to make calls and send texts without unlocking their phones. This convenient addition streamlines everyday tasks, making it easier to connect with others without navigating through multiple steps.
Users can enable this feature by accessing Gemini’s settings, selecting “Gemini on Lock Screen,” and toggling on the “Make calls and send messages without unlocking” option. While not yet widely available, the feature is gradually rolling out to users through the latest Google app update.
This update reflects Google’s ongoing efforts to enhance Gemini’s capabilities and integrate it more deeply into its products. The company is also reportedly working on a feature that will allow users to interact with Gemini using files, recordings, and images, further expanding the AI assistant’s functionality.
While this new lock screen feature offers greater convenience, users who prioritize privacy can choose not to enable it. This provides flexibility and control over how Gemini is utilized on their devices.
