Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Google brings all new Android features to MWC 2024”.
Hi there it’s mwc – and I am at the Android Booth, usually like a long walking Avenue in between the main Halls of mwc and Google announces bunch of new Android features around this time. So today we’ve got nine new Android features and there are demos all over this place. As you can see behind me, this entire line stretches down to Google demos. We have a bunch of really cool Google demos to show you today, including one that’s in the BMW.
I5 and another one that uses a McLaren Formula 1 car. So let’s get started so, as you can see, there’s like a huge circle behind me. That means we are in the circle to search demo at the Android pools at mwc 2024 and we’re going to see how Circle to search works and fortunately, have like a big screen to show you. So if you’ve not already tried the feature, here’s how it works! Welcome to the circle to search demo with Google with with circle to search. You can simply search your screen by circling the item you want to search for and because Circle to search runs on top of that app, I can press back and back again and I’m straight back to where I started from so I’m in a BMW, I5 right Now that Google has set up at the Google booth at mwc want to see a bunch of Android, Auto demos that Google has for us, including the new tech summarization feature.
So, let’s take a look. Anna wants to know if you’re still able to make it to dinner tonight and if you feel like that tie place, they like would be a good choice. So that was around about a 50 carat the message and with power of AI. It summarized that down into a very, very small message overall, a new feature: that’s just come out is smart reply, so you see on the screen now it’s got an I’m down function, so you can very quickly click, I’m down um and that will send the message To the original recipient, so another cool demo here at the Google booth at mwc is the McLaren demo.
It’S essentially uh. Google has a partnership with McLaren formul 1 and we’re going to see how you can use a Galaxy watch 6 to take a selfie of yourself with the car. What we seeing is this Galaxy 6 and watch classic is connected with the flip phone and with in the with the watch, you can see the zoom you can put a timer and basically, instead of having a selfie watch, you doing a selfie stick, you can do It with the watch so now I’m at the Gemini booth at the Google booth at MW.
2024. Of course, we’ve got all things Gemini over here, including generative AI wallpapers, which you must have already heard about they’re available on the pixel 8 series. Uh We’ve also got a demo of the Gemini in Gmail uh.
That’S probably something you haven’t used yet. So I’m going to take you to someone who will give you a demo of how that works. We’Ve all been stuck on emails where we’ve not quite been sure what to right and so help me write functionality uh by Gemini and Gmail, we’ll do just that.
So what we need to do is enter a prompt here, uh to create the email. So we have some example prompts uh to my left, so here, for example, we might want to write a summary uh to my team of my experience here at Mobile World Congress and then what’s going to happen is automatically an email is generated based on that prompt. So that was a quick tour of the Google Booth from mwc 2024.
