- In the latest beta of the Gemini Android app, we spotted an option to attach audio files, such as MP3s, to chats.
- A “Talk live about this” prompt also appears, but the audio isn’t accurately processed yet.
- While the feature might not be fully operational, we know that Gemini can comprehend audio.
Ever wished you could just throw an MP3 at Gemini and have it explain what it’s about? That might be coming soon, as we’ve spotted early signs of audio file support in the Gemini app for Android.

In version 16.30.59.sa.arm64 of the Google app beta, we managed to activate a new file attachment feature when chatting with Gemini. You can now attach audio files like MP3s, and when you do, Gemini shows a new suggestion: “Talk live about this.” That sounds promising, but it doesn’t actually work yet.
