Credit: Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Gemini will soon replace the Google Assistant on all devices, including Android phones, Wear OS watches, and Android Auto headunits. On compatible smartwatches, the switch could happen with an update for the Assistant app for Wear OS. The Assistant app could get a new icon once Gemini becomes available on Wear OS watches. Android currently offers users the option to choose either the Google Assistant or Gemini as their default voice assistant. However, Google plans to take this choice away later this year and make Gemini the default chatbot on all Android phones. The switch from Assistant to Gemini is also on the cards for other devices, like Wear OS watches and Android Auto headunits. While Google has not shared specific details about the transition on these devices, a new report suggests it could happen with a simple app update, at least on compatible smartwatches. New strings in the latest release of the Assistant app for Wear OS (via 9to5Google) indicate that Google could switch to Gemini on smartwatches with a future update for this app. Once the update rolls out, users will be able to summon the chatbot by holding the side button or using the “Hey Google” hotword when the “watch is fully awake.” The strings further add that the users will have to connect their watch to a supported phone to set up Gemini and enable Bluetooth to talk to the chatbot.

Only essential booking details are shown for easier use. If you live in the US, you may not be familiar with Uber Lite. It’s a lighter, simpler version of the regular Uber Android app and it’s only available in select countries like Ghana, India, Lebanon, South Africa, and so on. Although the Lite version of Uber isn’t available in the US, we could soon see its simpler UI added to the regular app through a new mode.
