According to a report from 9to5Google, Google AI Mode is now showing up on Android tablets, nearly half a year after it launched on phones.
If you’re running Google app version 16.30 (currently in beta), you’ll spot the AI Mode shortcut at the top of the Discover feed. It also shows up in the Pixel Launcher and widget. It works just like it does on phones—same prompt bar, same Lens and image upload tools, but stretched out for the bigger screen.

Is it optimized? Not really. The layout is clearly meant for portrait mode and feels awkward in landscape. But hey, it beats opening a browser and typing in google.com/aimode every time.
Once you launch it, the response interface is pretty much a scaled version of the desktop layout. It’s not fancy, but it gets the job done. You can still generate responses, upload photos, and use AI tools without jumping through hoops.
What about iPads? Still no luck there. The iOS Google app is stuck on an older design, and AI Mode isn’t available at all. If you don’t see it on your Android tablet yet, check if you’re running the latest beta. The rollout seems staggered, so it might take a few more days to hit your device.
