Google is preparing to launch Gemini Live support on the desktop web version of Gemini. Until now, Gemini Live has only been accessible on mobile, where users can engage in voice conversations and share either their screen or camera, allowing Gemini to process audio and video in real time. The appearance of a new button labeled “Start sharing your screen for live translation” in the Gemini Web interface points toward upcoming availability of these features on desktop, likely expanding to new workflows beyond mobile devices.
Previously, a similar menu entry was visible in Gemini for business, where Gemini Live is integrated into the navigation bar, indicating Google’s intent to push this functionality to broader audiences. The desktop implementation highlights live translation, suggesting that users will be able to share their screen and receive real-time translation of on-screen content. This may benefit those learning new languages or needing help with foreign-language materials in professional or educational settings.
There’s no official release timeline yet. The update raises expectations that Google might introduce a new version of Gemini Live models for the web, especially since Gemini 2.5 powers the current live preview for audio and video input. The transition to desktop could be accompanied by an upgrade to Gemini 3 Pro or the upcoming Flash variant, which would potentially bring improved multimodal understanding and faster processing for live use cases. This move aligns with Google’s strategy to unify Gemini’s capabilities across platforms and to strengthen its position in the productivity and learning segments, making advanced real-time assistance more widely available.
