Your Android phone just got a major Gemini upgrade for music fans - and it's free

The next time you can't remember the name of that song that's stuck in your head, Gemini might be able to help you. One lesser-known feature of Google Assistant was the ability to identify a song, either by letting it listen to a track that was playing or by humming the tune. Pixel phones have a similar feature built in, but if you were on another Android device, you were just left wondering since Assistant switched to Gemini (or you resorted to the Google app or a third-party app like Shazam).

There hasn't been an official announcement, but over the past several weeks, users have noticed a new "Search a song" button at the bottom of the Gemini assistant.
