As its competition takes a break, Google is doubling down on video generation through Gemini, with Omni upgrades for it filmmaker and musician-focused Flow AI tools, as well as dedicated mobile apps starting on Android.
Google Flow was announced last year at I/O 2025 as an AI video editing suite. The tool lets creators build out videos using assets generated by AI and their own footage, being able to do things such as manipulating camera movement and angles, extend shots, all while being able to organize assets. Google built on the tool, later adding support for “Frames to Video” which would let users provide starting and ending points for a video, with Flow bridging the gap. In April 2026, Google then launched “Flow Music” as a rebrand of ProducerAI, delivering AI tools for music production.
At I/O 2026, Google has a few upgrades for these tools.
That starts with dedicated mobile apps for both Google Flow and Flow Music. These dedicated apps will coexist with the web version and are designed for “flexibility” and the ability to “create on the go.” Flow’s video editor will launch first on Android (in beta), coming later to iOS, while Flow Music gets the reverse with an iOS debut first and Android coming later.
Beyond that, both are getting upgrades on the back of Gemini Omni.
In Google Flow’s video tools, Omni will let creators “blend real-world inspiration with generated content” and “iterate conversationally” on the output. Omni will also improve consistency for characters in Flow creations, preserving “identity and voice” across scenes and generations.
On the music side of things, Flow Music will leverage Omni to create music videos with the ability to “guide the styles, subjects, and scenes to match the narrative and pacing of your track.”
Omni Flash upgrades in Flow and Flow Music are available today.
Other upgrades coming to Flow include the Google Flow Agent, a “creative partner” that can help you plan and reason through brainstorming a project. Google says this could be used for things such as figuring out dialogue or “plot recommendations,” as well as being able to generate multiple versions of a scene to help you make a choice. Batch edits will also be available through the Agent.
Google Flow Agent is available as of today, globally. Also aiding in quick edits, Google Flow Tools are effectively presets for the AI, letting you create tools that can resize video, apply certain aesthetics and effects, and more. This is also available today, with some early tools already available for use.
For Flow Music, Google is bringing more precise, granular control over track edits, allowing changes such as translation or restyling only a specific part of a track instead of the whole thing. Flow Music can also now change the style of songs “while keeping the original melody and structure.”
