Frequently asked questions
Gemini Live is a feature that lets you talk with AI from Google using just your voice.

Yes. There is no need to choose one or the other. You can start typing in a chat with Gemini, then click into a live chat with AI using your voice when you walk out the door. All of your context, tools and conversation history stay right where they belong – in one continuous thread.
Yes. Gemini Live is your personal conversational AI assistant meaning it is designed to understand you better over time. Ask AI a question and it can securely remember key details you mention across different sessions, like dietary preferences, important family dates, or your favorite hobbies, so you don't have to keep repeating yourself during future chats.
During a chat, Gemini can seamlessly interact with your Google ecosystem so that you can get things done hands-free. While having a natural conversation with your conversational AI assistant, you can ask Gemini to pull information or take actions across several everyday tools. For example, Gemini can search through your Gmail and Google Drive to find specific details in your emails or quickly summarise your documents. It can also manage your schedule and checklist by checking Google Calendar and adding new to-do items directly to Google Tasks or Keep Notes. If you are on the move, you can ask your AI voice assistant to look up directions on Google Maps, find flight and hotel details, play helpful instructional videos on YouTube or control your smart home devices and phone settings.
To keep your live chat with AI focused on fast, natural conversations, certain creation and organization features are not available during an active voice session. Gemini Live does not have access to Gems or Notebooks. Additionally, Gemini Live does not support Omni or Lyria. If you ever need to use any of these specific features, simply close the voice screen to return to the standard typing window.
