Relevance Score
Google plans to make Gemini the default Android assistant in 2026, transitioning from the long-standing Google Assistant and phasing the change across devices. Gemini offers stronger conversational reasoning, multimodal inputs, and richer responses for creative and productivity tasks, while Assistant remains faster and more mature for quick voice commands and smart-home integrations; some Gemini features are still incomplete.
