Google on Wednesday announced it is bringing the Gemini app to Apple CarPlay, allowing iPhone users to access the Gemini Live voice assistant from their car display. The feature is rolling out globally to all Gemini iOS users across supported languages, the company said.
The integration allows users to have natural, hands-free conversations with the artificial intelligence assistant while driving. Google said the app can summarize unread emails, check calendars, brainstorm ideas or rehearse presentations. Users can interrupt the assistant to add details or pause conversations.
According to Google, chats sync automatically with the user’s iPhone, saving summaries and notes to the chat history for access after parking. The assistant connects with Google Workspace apps like Gmail and Google Calendar. Some personalization features, such as the Daily Brief, are not available in the European Economic Area, Nigeria, or to users under 18.
To use the feature, users must update to the latest version of the Gemini app on their iPhone, enable microphone permissions, and have used Gemini Live on their phone at least once. The rollout follows the earlier introduction of Gemini on Android Auto.
