Google is not slowing down in the development of Gemini and is regularly improving its artificial intelligence-based assistant. After a major refresh presented at the I/O 2026 conference, the company has prepared further changes for Android users. This time, the focus has primarily been on the appearance and ease of use of the most important features. The update does not bring a revolution but significantly improves daily use of the assistant. Users who appreciate the integration of system themes and quick access to AI tools can be particularly pleased.
Gemini gains Dynamic Color and a more modern appearance
One of the most important innovations is the implementation of Dynamic Color support in the Gemini overlay. This feature, known to Android users, automatically adjusts the interface colours to the chosen system wallpaper. As a result, the assistant better blends in with the overall appearance of the device. The most noticeable changes occur when using the dark theme. The text field and additional buttons no longer use neutral grey shades, but adopt the colours derived from the selected theme. In light mode, the differences are somewhat less noticeable, although subtle visual improvements have also been made there. For instance, the appearance of the dropdown menu when clicking the button to add new items has been modified. The sheets and tabs of available options have received a more vibrant colour scheme. Google aims to increase consistency between Gemini and the rest of the Android system in this way. Interestingly, the changes currently mainly concern the Gemini overlay triggered on the screen. The full application still does not utilise Dynamic Color to the same extent. However, the company is likely planning to further expand this feature in future updates. For many users, this is a small change, but it contributes to a more modern and polished appearance of the entire assistant.
An important screen-related feature reaches the main menu
Google has also introduced changes regarding how to use the screen content analysis feature. The "Screen content" tool allows you to capture the currently displayed content and use it as part of a query directed to Gemini. Previously, this option was hidden deeper in the tools menu alongside features related to images or personal data. After the update, it has been moved directly to the main carousel menu. It is now located next to options such as Photos, Camera, Files, Google Drive, and Notebooks. This makes access to the feature significantly faster and more intuitive. Google is clearly focusing on solutions that allow for easy use of the context of currently displayed content. In practice, a user can quickly ask Gemini for an explanation of an article, analysis of a photo, or assistance in solving a problem visible on the screen. This is one of the features that best showcases the potential of modern AI assistants. The company has already begun widespread implementation of this change in stable versions of the Google app. In some cases, it may be necessary to restart the app for the new layout to be activated. Everything indicates that Google will continue to develop the integration of Gemini with the Android system, making the assistant even more helpful for everyday use.
Google continues to develop Gemini on Android and introduces further enhancements. Dynamic Color makes the overlay look better and integrate more harmoniously with the system theme, while the "Screen content" feature becomes more accessible thanks to the new menu layout. Although these are relatively minor changes, they significantly improve the comfort of using the AI assistant. This is another step towards deeper integration of Gemini with the everyday experience of Android users.
