Gemini Assistant Gets a Fresh New UI: Here’s What’s Changed

Google’s Gemini assistant on Android is getting a fresh new look, with a simplified and more colorful user interface (UI) that’s starting to roll out to a wider audience.

Over the past 24 hours, many users have noticed the change, which is being discussed across Reddit and other platforms.

The new UI is a significant departure from the previous design, which featured a dark box with text and several buttons.

Now, the interface is cleaner, with a single-row bar and fewer clickable options. One of the most noticeable changes is the addition of a pink and blue glowing border, drawing comparisons to Apple’s Siri animation.

While the change is welcome for many, there’s a catch—Google is rolling it out slowly, meaning not everyone will see the update right away.

Users have been reporting that even with updates to the Gemini app or the Google app, the new UI may not appear immediately. This slow rollout system, which often frustrates users, has been a common practice for Google over the years.

Interestingly, even those who subscribe to Gemini Advanced, which promises priority access to new features, aren’t seeing the update first.

The new UI is being seen across various Pixel devices, including those without a paid Gemini subscription.

Although this is just a UI update without new features, many are hoping for additional improvements and functionality in future updates, especially considering the paid nature of some of Google’s services.
