Google Search Live feature: What is it, where is it available, plus full details
Key takeaways:
- Google has launched Search Live, a voice-activated feature for its iOS and Android app, allowing users to conduct searches and follow-up conversations hands-free.
- The feature is part of Google’s AI Mode initiative and is currently available only in the United States through Google Labs.
- Search Live enables users to speak directly with Google Search, get spoken answers, switch between voice and text with Transcript, and access past conversations through searchable history.
- Though similar to Google’s Gemini Live tool, Search Live uses a custom version of the Gemini AI model optimized for voice interactions, with camera input integration planned for future updates.
- The overlapping functions between Search Live and Gemini Live have caused user confusion, and Google has yet to announce a global release date.
