Google Gemini’s Astra (screen sharing) rolls out on Android for some users

At MWC 2025, Google confirmed it was working on screen and video share capabilities for Gemini Live, codenamed “Project Astra”. At that time, Google promised that the feature would begin rolling out soon, and now some users have spotted it in the wild.

According to a video shared by a Reddit user who owns a Xiaomi phone with a Gemini Advanced subscription, you can now share your phone’s screen with Gemini Live and ask questions about it.

The integration is interesting because you can ask AI questions about what’s on your screen and have a lengthy discussion, and Gemini will remember the context.

For example, if you open Chrome, then go to Wikipedia, and invoke Gemini Live, you can ask Gemini to summarize what you see on the screen.

This means if you’re browsing the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) page on Wikipedia, you can use Gemini to sum up the numbers for you or explain key economic terms to you.

You can even ask it to read for you or turn the page into a melody or rephrase it in a language of your choice.

Gemini will understand the context because it can see what you’re doing with your phone.

Google previously said that Gemini’s screen-sharing capabilities would roll out to Gemini Advanced subscribers only, which starts at $19.99 per month.
