Google 推出 Android 五项更新，含缓解晕动症的 Motion Assist 和基于 Gemini 的 Guided Vision

周二，谷歌宣布将推出五项新更新，旨在让安卓手机更具可访问性、实用性和个性化。在周二发布的一篇博客文章中公布了这些更新：https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/platforms/android/android-drop-september-2026/。这些功能包括旨在减少晕动症，帮助盲人和视力低下用户导航周围环境，记住用户放置重要物品的位置，以及添加新的方式个性化谷歌消息的功能。

虽然其中一些功能显示谷歌在追赶已经为iPhone用户提供类似功能的苹果，但其他功能特别利用Gemini提供各种改进。

最有趣的更新是“运动辅助”，这是一项旨在帮助在移动交通工具中使用手机时会产生晕动症的人士的功能。它在屏幕上添加了一个随车辆运动而移动的气泡覆盖层，帮助减少用户在屏幕上看到的内容与身体感受之间的脱节。

然而，这个概念并非全新。苹果在2024年推出了“车辆运动提示：https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/15/apple-accessibility-features-2024/”，它在显示屏边缘使用动画点，根据车辆运动进行移动。

用户可以设置“运动辅助”自动开启，将其添加到快捷设置，并自定义气泡的形状、颜色和透明度。谷歌表示，该功能适用于安卓17用户。

谷歌还推出了“引导视觉”，这是一项为盲人和视力低下用户设计的功能。它将手机摄像头与Gemini结合，帮助完成如阅读食品标签上的小字体、在昏暗餐厅查看菜单或识别室内物体等任务。

当摄像头位置不正确时，该功能还可以提供语音指导，提示用户移动手机、环顾四周或将物体置于中心。引导视觉功能将面向运行安卓9及更高版本且Gemini可用的国家开放。

另一次更新为Gemini提供了一种帮助用户记住重要物品放置位置的新方法。在Find Hub中增加的“已记住的物品”部分将允许用户告诉Gemini他们把某物存放在哪里。例如，用户可以说他们把护照放在卧室抽屉里，Gemini可以将该信息保存在Find Hub中。用户还可以附加照片，以便稍后更容易识别物品。

此外，Google正在将Google Keep整合到Google Messages中，使人们能够在对话中直接共享和编辑购物清单、度假笔记及其他信息。

此外，Google Messages正在增加更多个性化选项。Google表示，用户将能够用背景、照片和颜色定制单个聊天。文字气泡将自动匹配。

苹果去年在Messages中加入了类似的自定义背景功能：https://techcrunch.com/snippet/3016769/apples-messages-app-gets-new-features-including-polls/。

On Tuesday, Google announced it’s rolling out five new updates designed to make Android phones more accessible, useful, and personalized. Announced in a blog post：https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/platforms/android/android-drop-september-2026/ on Tuesday, the features include those aimed at reducing motion sickness, helping blind and low-vision users navigate their surroundings, remembering where users leave important items, and another that adds new ways to personalize Google Messages.

While some of the features see Google playing catch-up to Apple, which already offers similar features for iPhone users, others specifically leverage Gemini to provide various improvements.

The most interesting update is “Motion Assist,” a feature designed to help people who experience motion sickness while using their phones in a moving vehicle. It adds a bubble overlay to the screen that moves in response to the vehicle’s motion, helping reduce the disconnect between what users see on their screens and what their bodies feel.

The concept isn’t entirely new, however. Apple introduced “Vehicle Motion Cues：https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/15/apple-accessibility-features-2024/” in 2024, which uses animated dots around the edges of the display that move in response to a vehicle’s motion.

Users can set “Motion Assist” to turn on automatically, add it to Quick Settings, and customize the bubble’s shape, color, and transparency. Google says this feature is available to Android 17 users.

Google is also introducing “Guided Vision,” a feature designed with blind and low-vision users in mind. It combines the phone’s camera with Gemini to help with tasks such as reading small print on a food label, viewing a menu in a dark restaurant, or identifying objects around the house.

The feature can also provide voice guidance when the camera isn’t positioned correctly, telling users to move the phone, pan around, or center an object. Guided Vision is coming to phones running Android 9 and newer in countries where Gemini is available.

Another update gives Gemini a new way to help users remember where they put important items. A “remembered items” section in Find Hub will allow users to tell Gemini where they’ve stored something. For example, a user could say they put their passport in a bedroom drawer, and Gemini can save that information in Find Hub. Users can also attach a photo to make the item easier to identify later.

Additionally, Google is adding a Google Keep integration to Google Messages, allowing people to share and edit grocery lists, vacation notes, and other information directly within a conversation.

Plus, Google Messages is getting more personalization options. Users will be able to customize individual chats with backgrounds, photos, and colors, Google says. The text bubbles will automatically match.

Apple added a similar custom background feature ：https://techcrunch.com/snippet/3016769/apples-messages-app-gets-new-features-including-polls/to Messages last year.
