▾

// FULL RELEASE NOTES

›Powered by Gemini 2.0 — maintains persistent memory of what it has seen and heard

›Camera mode: point phone at anything — Astra reads receipts, explains diagrams, identifies objects live

›Cross-session memory: "Where did I leave my keys?" answered from earlier camera footage

›Acts across Google apps: drafts Gmail replies, creates Calendar events, searches Maps — all from voice

›Available on Pixel 9 Pro first; rolling to Android then iOS

›Requires Gemini Advanced (Google One AI Premium — $20/month)

›Astra is the product layer; Gemini 2.5 Pro is the underlying model

›Google positions Astra as an ongoing long-term platform — not a one-time feature
