Google Introduces Gemini Agentic Phone Features

Google announced that Gemini will soon handle multi-step phone tasks like ordering food or hailing rides, beginning on the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Samsung Galaxy S26. A demo showed Gemini parsing a group chat, preparing an order via GrubHub, and alerting the user to review and submit; Google says the beta will work in "select rideshare and food apps." The move positions Gemini as an agentic assistant while Apple’s similar Siri features remain delayed.
