- Pixel 10-exclusive Magic Cue might soon start working in third-party apps, and we got a glimpse of it.
- A developer tweaked the Firefox app on Android to give us an exclusive preview of how Magic Cue would work.
- Magic Cue uses AI to suggest relevant actions or information based on what’s on the screen.
Back when Google showcased the Pixel’s Magic Cue, its ability to immediately predict what you might be thinking was marketed as groundbreaking. However, in the months that followed, the Pixel 10-exclusive has been short of magical and has instead felt frivolous and unnecessary. That’s also because it has been limited to Google’s own apps, sidelining other apps that users might rely on more.
This may improve, as Google plans to allow third-party apps to use Magic Cue. During the Google for Developers sessions following the I/O 2026 keynote last month, Google’s engineers spoke about Magic Cue suggestions showing up in other apps, with an example of it appearing in a Snapchat chat. They left out key details, such as which apps are supported or how the flow would actually work, but a developer was recently able to enable and demonstrate how Magic Cue could work on non-Google apps.
