Gemini Integration for Pixel Buds

Google has rolled out an update for its Pixel Buds companion app, bringing Gemini integration for audio controls. The app, now at version 1.0.981607934, allows users to manage various Pixel Buds settings directly through Gemini voice commands.

Expanded Voice Control Capabilities

With the update, users can issue commands such as "Hey Google, turn up the bass" or "Hey Google, turn on noise cancellation." These commands activate a Gemini overlay, confirming the connection and execution of the requested setting change. Previously, such commands would only open the system Bluetooth settings.

The updated Pixel Buds app version 1.0.981607934 is now widely available through the Play Store. Other features previewed by Google, including Dynamic ANC for Pixel Buds Pro 2, Pixel Watch sleep sync, and Live Translate activation via Pixel Buds, are expected to require a separate firmware update.
