Google AI Studio Updates: Native Android, Agents, and Workspace

Agent Deployment and Customization

Google AI Studio has introduced a dedicated Agents tab that provides access to a gallery of pre-built agents, including the Antigravity agent. Users can now deploy remote, autonomous agents that operate on Google infrastructure rather than simple chatbot instances. These agents can be customized by modifying system instructions, defining specific tool access, and adding custom skills via the playground interface.

Native Android App Generation

Developers can now generate native Android applications directly from a single prompt within the AI Studio interface. The system produces Kotlin-based code and provides an integrated Android simulator for testing functionality. Users can install these generated applications onto physical Android devices by enabling developer mode and connecting via USB.

Google Workspace Integration

AI Studio now supports direct integration with Google Workspace, allowing applications to read from and write to Google Sheets, Drive, and Gmail. The platform automates the OAuth authorization process, enabling bidirectional data synchronization between the generated app and the connected data source. Users can select from various UI design templates during the build process to style the resulting application.

API Usage and Exporting

Google has updated the API management dashboard to provide granular usage tracking. Developers can monitor token consumption and billing metrics per individual API key, broken down by model type and specific functionality like content generation or live API usage. Additionally, projects can be exported directly into the Antigravity environment for further development or downloaded as a self-contained project file.
