TL;DR

Google recently introduced the neural design for its Gemini launcher on Android, and it’s now being tested across other parts, including the floating overlay.

These elements include a flowy overlay rather than a solid shape, with colorful dots sprinkled in the background.

The redesign also brings new buttons for the Live interface, with a similarly flowy design.

Around two months ago, Google introduced Gemini’s new neural design with 3D visual effects and spatial animations , almost gesturing at its transformation for the upcoming Android XR visual interface. The effects were largely limited to Gemini’s homescreen on Android, as well as regular (non-Live) chats. Now, however, we’re seeing these changes spill over to the Gemini overlay, the floating bar that appears when you hail Gemini from outside the Google app, as well as in the Gemini Live interface.
