Android is evolving into an intelligence system where agents like Gemini orchestrate tasks across apps. To unlock new user experiences and participate in these agentic workflows, your app must expose its core capabilities.
This session is a practical guide to integrating your app with Android's intelligence layer. We'll survey key integration paths - including on-device Android MCP, server-side MCP, and Task Automation - and provide a decision framework for choosing the right path for your use case. We'll also explore proactive experiences with Personal Context.
You will learn how to:
- Select the optimal integration path for your app's needs.
- Implement both reactive and proactive intelligence features.
- Balance performance and security in agentic integrations.
Speakers: Sarah Shamsie, Daniel Galpin
Chapters:
0:00 - Introduction to the intelligence era
4:13 - Prompted assistance and Android MCP
6:24 - Key use cases for Android MCP
11:15 - Technical deep dive into Android MCP
18:22 - Testing app functions and agents
19:44 - Connecting to Gemini with the Connected Apps Platform
22:30 - Demo of Gemini app integration
23:49 - Wrap-up and future of mobile agents
