Google did something a bit different this year. Instead of talking about Android during the I/O developer conference, which kicks off on May 20, it’s hosting a show dedicated to its mobile software.
The Android Show begins at 10 AM PT/1PM ET today, and we expect to hear more about Material 3 Expressive, the new user interface that leaked recently, and when it’ll be available as part of Android 16. It’s also likely we’ll hear about the many other riffs of Android, from Wear OS to Android Automotive. Maybe we’ll even get another peek at Android XR.
And while AI is sure to be the focus of the entire Google I/O developer conference, we suspect we’ll hear about Gemini a bit today, too. We’ll be covering it all right here.
Android’s youthful new design language just dropped
Gemini is coming to TVs and cars, eventually
