Google Search Live: AI-powered search in real time
With Search Live, users can ask questions directly without having to type them in. After opening the Google app on Android or iOS, simply tap the Live icon under the search bar. The AI then answers in natural language, whereby follow-up questions can easily be asked and further links offered. The feature is particularly suitable for situations where quick assistance is needed – for example, for DIY work, cooking instructions or general information requests.
The camera integration is particularly practical: users can show objects directly in front of the camera. The AI recognizes them and provides targeted information and suitable web resources. The combination of visual input and real-time dialog turns the search into an interactive experience. If you already use Google Lens, you can start the conversation directly via the live option, which gives the AI contextual information from the environment and allows it to respond in a more targeted manner.
Gemini 3.1 Flash Live: Multilingual and natural interactions
Search Live is based on the new Gemini 3.1 Flash Live model, which processes both speech and visual data. The AI supports multiple languages simultaneously, allowing users worldwide to interact with Search in their preferred language. This update ensures that answers are even more relevant, understandable and fluid.
By combining audio and camera recognition, Search Live enables not only simple search queries, but also contextual problem solving. This opens up new possibilities for users, from step-by-step instructions to more complex tasks such as travel planning, product comparison or DIY projects.
Conclusion
With the global launch of Search Live, Google is setting a new standard for interactive search functions. Users benefit from real-time answers, visual context analysis and multilingual support – all based on the powerful Gemini 3.1 Flash Live model. The feature is now available in the Google app on Android and iOS and adds a dynamic, interactive dimension to traditional search.
