Google launches AI-powered custom widget creation for Android

Google has introduced a new "Create My Widget" feature for Android, enabling users to generate custom widgets using natural language prompts. This tool, powered by Gemini, will initially be available on select Samsung and Google Pixel phones this summer. The feature aims to simplify widget creation by allowing users to describe their desired information, such as personalized weather updates or meal prep suggestions, and can even integrate data from Google apps like Gmail and Calendar for more complex dashboards. This initiative represents Google's ongoing effort to embed generative AI more deeply into the Android operating system, making advanced customization more accessible. AI
