Google’s Gemini generative AI assistant has been made available via a dedicated app on the iPhone for the first time. Although Gemini can already be accessed on iPhones via the web, Google said the app will offer a “more streamlined Gemini experience”,

Alphabet's Google on Thursday released a smartphone app for its artificial intelligence chatbot on Apple's App Store that introduced the latest generation of its voice assistant to the popular mobile operating system.

The Android app came out in February, but Apple users only got a limited integration within the main Google app, which doesn't have advanced capabilities such as Gemini Live.

Scammers steal nearly $1 trillion annually, and most of it is through phone call fraud. With scammers becoming more sophisticated and harder to identify, Google's new Scam Detection will scan phone calls in real-time to protect users from fraud before it can occur.

One of the Gemini AI-powered features Google introduced at I/O this year was a solution for never-ending scam calls. It has the capability to detect whether a call is suspicious while it's still ongoing and can alert you so that you could drop the call as soon as possible.

The AI-based features are rolling out to Pixel 6 or newer first but will soon be expanded to other Android devices, Google says.
