Google is adding a real-time caption feature to Gemini Live on Android and iOS, enabling users to engage in text-based conversations with the AI. This feature displays live captions of Gemini’s responses directly on the screen, facilitating communication in situations where listening to voice responses is inconvenient or undesirable.
Imagine using Gemini hands-free outdoors or in a busy environment, without needing the AI to speak aloud. The caption feature solves this, allowing for discreet and accessible interaction.
Beyond basic functionality, Google is providing customisation options. Users can adjust the font size and appearance of the captions, ensuring optimal readability and personal preference. This enhances the overall user experience, making Gemini Live even more versatile and adaptable to diverse communication needs.
