The new feature update was announced on a support page for Gemini. The update stated, “You can get help from Gemini by touch or by saying “Hey Google” (if on) when your device is locked, based on your lock screen settings.”

An important note was also added saying, “Your Gemini mobile app can’t perform some tasks that Google Assistant can perform on lock screen when it is your primary active assistant, like reading messages. In these cases, you’ll need to unlock your phone.”

Users can also set and stop timers, pause and play songs, turn on flashlight, control the volume level using the newly upgraded version of Gemini AI assistant. The interface is now smoother even though the tasks are still done by Google Assistant. The user no longer has to wait for the command to be fulfilled.
