Insights from Google I/O: Developer Perspectives

It's the main event, back at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, CA, steps away from the Google headquarters for the big show, Google I/O 2025. Jason Howell, Mishaal Rahman, Florence Ion and Ron Richards were in attendance for all the Gemini and AI related announcements and reveals and break down what you need to know from an Android POV. Plus, we sat down with friends of the show Sam Bright, VP and GM of Google Play and Developer Ecosystem and Matthew McCullough, VP of Product Management, Android Developer to catch up on all the news as it relates to the Android ecosystem and get hyped for Android XR!

Due to an unfixable error in the studio, the interview audio is less than ideal. We tried our best to clean up the audio. Our apologies.
