Gemini app gets Dark Mode upgrades on Android

Gemini Dark Mode app

Google has made some amazing updates to its Gemini app on Android, especially for users who prefer dark mode. Now, the app looks better and is easier to use.

After introducing the “Ask Gemini” feature this week, Gemini has got some more tweaks for a better experience. The new changes are visible in Gemini with Google App beta version 14.2.

It redesigns the ‘plus’ sign located at the left, which lets you upload files and images. Instead of being inside a circle, the ‘plus’ sign is now larger and easier to see. This makes it simpler to find and use, especially during chats.

In addition, the microphone and camera icons get a slight change. The light blue background they used to have is now a soft light gray. This new color matches the Gemini Live button, which gives a more consistent look across the app.

While the new design might not be as too highlighted as before, it helps make the app simpler and cleaner. It also helps to reduce glare as it is visually appealing for dark-mode users.

Aside from the dark mode, the Gemini is also going to offer a resizing feature for generative AI images. Android users will be able to expand or shrink the canvas of AI-generated images within the Gemini app.

Apple Intelligence

iOS 18.1 has started rolling out, bringing the first batch to Apple Intelligence features. iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series models are eligible for AI tricks. iOS 18.1 is set to rival Samsung’s Galaxy AI with Apple Intelligence in the market.

Although the full version of Apple Intelligence may take some time to launch, some features are now available, including Smart Reply, Smart Summary, and writing tools that can proofread, summarize, and rewrite text across the OS.

iOS 18.1 will be available for iPhone models supporting iOS 18, including all iPhones from the iPhone XS and iPhone XR up to the current iPhone 16 models.

Apple’s iOS 18.1 supports spatial photo capture for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max and adds the existing spatial video capture feature in the new Spatial Camera mode.

Adding to this, new connectivity controls for Satellite and AirDrop have been added to the Control Center, allowing these buttons to be added individually.

Call Recording: iOS 18.1 makes it possible to record phone calls on your iPhone. However, it will notify the second party via announcement that the call is being recorded.

Samsung has been supporting the Call Recording feature on Galaxy devices. Its availability varies by market, but it’s quite useful if used positively as it doesn’t announce call recording notifications.

Samsung vs Apple – AI Distribution

Samsung debuted Galaxy AI with the S24 series earlier this year. Apple announced AI-powered Siri and some other features at this year’s Developer Conference. Samsung’s AI expansion is taking place rapidly, while Apple’s lagging badly.

Mid-range Galaxy users received some AI features like Circle to Search. At the same time, Apple is keeping its Apple Intelligence feature suite limited to Pro models of the iPhone 15 series apart from the recently released iPhone 16 lineup.
