According to the report, DailyListen appears below the search bar on the Google app for eligible users. A screenshot of the feature shows it inside a colorful tile with rounded corners, which can be tapped to open a full-screen interface with a Gemini sparkle icon.

Then, it is said to summarize the main daily news from these topics and turn the text into a podcast. . The entire process is said not to require the user to enter any prompts, and the process is handled automatically by AI.

Users are also shown allegedly related news articles that they can click on to get more context behind the news. In particular, since this is an experimental feature, the AI ​​may not be accurate in picking the right headlines and news articles.
