It is said that Google is on the verge of dealing with Apple to bring Gemini integration to the iPhone. According to a report, this step will provide Gemini as an artificial intelligence (AI) auxiliary option on Apple’s devices, which helps the native voice-based assistant, Siri, reacts to more complex questions. Although the deal has not yet been fully agreed, many dialogues have already been reported to be between the CEOs of both tech beamoths, and if everything falls in the line, Gemini may be available on the iPhone by the end of the year.
Gemini integration on iPhone
Ruckus Reports CEO Sundar Pichai of that alphabet confirmed Google’s ambitions to bring native Gemini integration to the iPhone during the hearing of the United States vs Google Search Monopoly Trail on Wednesday. Asked about this rumor deal, Pichai labeled it as “right” and shared details about his meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook.
“He [Cook] Trying to understand our plans, we were developing AI Technologies, how our roadmaps are developing, “Pichai said during the hearing, both the CEOs also discussed the schemes of” Gemini app along with the distribution of Gemini app “.
The CEO of the alphabet said that Google is expected to attack a deal with Apple to bring Gemini integration to the iPhone by the middle of this year, and the rollout may begin by the end of 2025. It is expected to be similar to the current chatgate integration in Siri, which was introduced with iOS18 last year. A fully opt-in option, it enables Siri to seek the help of openi’s chatbot, to write lessons, make images, or answer complex questions.
According to the report, Cook also told Pichai that more third-party AI models will be available on Apple Intelligence later this year.
However, this is not the first time that Apple plans to introduce other AI models on the iPhone. In June 2024, during a post-Tinyot session in WWDC 2024, Apple Senior Vice President Craig Federighi allegedly pointed to plans to manufacture Gemini integration in Siri.
“We eventually want users to choose models that they want, perhaps in the future Google Gemini,” the official said at that time.
In addition, Macromers’ analyst Aaron Paris also discovered the cod wire from the iOS 18.4 beta, which added to Google under the “III-party model” section window, indicating that the Gemini AI model with the Apple operating system could work to integrate the model.
