The email states that starting July 7, Gemini will "help" with Phone, Messages, and WhatsApp, even if Gemini Apps Activity is turned off.

Google’s Gemini team is apparently sending out emails about an upcoming change to how Gemini interacts with apps on Android devices. The email informs users that, come July 7, 2025, Gemini will be able to “help you use Phone, Messages, WhatsApp, and Utilities on your phone, whether your Gemini Apps Activity is on or off.” Naturally, this has raised some privacy concerns among those who’ve received the email and those using the AI assistant on their Android devices.

    I used Maemo on my N900 <3.

    I don’t wanna use Sailfish bcs of the phone support tho, I’m shallow af & I need my hardware :(.
    (I also have a few other Sailfish issues, the source code/availability/package, the licencing - but I feel like all of those could/would change with some growth.)

      I understand. But I think it’s right that they concentrate on a few devices. There’s also something about SONY openly providing firmware iirc.

      Ah, the N900…
