Google’s AI-powered virtual assistant, Gemini, is now rolling out to more Wear OS smartwatch users via the Google Play Store. To access Gemini, users can open the Play Store app on their watch, scroll down to Manage apps, and install the “Google Gemini on Wear OS” update.
Upon installation, users will receive a notification that Gemini is now available on their watch. However, unlike traditional voice assistants, Gemini does not use the Google Assistant icon; instead, it features a unique sparkle symbol. Users can launch Gemini by pressing the side button long-pressing the app icon or using the “Hey Google” hotword.
Gemini offers a range of commands, including general queries like weather forecasts and recipe cooking times, as well as specific tasks like sending messages or adding events to calendars. The virtual assistant also supports visual responses with images and a thumbs up/down rating system for accuracy.
As Gemini continues to roll out, users can check the Google Play Store app on their watch to see if they have access to this new feature. Available commands include a mix of general knowledge questions and more practical tasks that cater to daily life and fitness activities.
