How to watch Google’s Android Show: I/O Edition today

There’s inactive a week to spell until Google I/O 2025 starts successful earnest, but immoderate of the developer conference’s biggest announcements are apt to get contiguous successful a one-off livestream called The Android Show: I/O Edition.

When the Android Show volition hap and wherever to ticker it

The Android Show takes spot today, Tuesday, May 13th, astatine 10AM PT / 1PM ET. You tin ticker it unrecorded connected the Android site oregon its YouTube channel, and we’ve embedded the livestream astatine the apical of this leafage too.

Google’s main I/O keynotes thin to tally for a mates of hours. Breaking Android retired should mean this is simply a shorter show, though we don’t cognize for definite however agelong it’ll run.

A caller look for Android

One happening we’re beauteous assured is coming is the motorboat of Android’s caller plan language, Material 3 Expressive. That’s due to the fact that Google already published (and deleted) a blog station revealing the caller look, and inactive has the sanction online successful an I/O league listing that calls it “the aboriginal of Google’s UX design.”

We haven’t seen Material 3 Expressive successful Android 16’s beta releases yet, truthful the Android Show should beryllium our archetypal elaborate look astatine however it works, and hopefully we’ll find retired erstwhile it — and Android 16 — volition get connected our phones.

Android XR

Google first announced its Android-ified instrumentality connected extended world successful December 2024, truthful we’re astir owed an update connected it, particularly with Samsung’s Project Moohan headset inactive slated to motorboat this year.

We got to try the tech retired past year, truthful we cognize the basics of what to expect, but Google needs to beryllium that its conception is acceptable to go reality. Is a boatload of XR updates the crushed it broke retired the Android Show into its ain event?

Don’t clasp your enactment for hardware

Google is inconsistent astir announcing hardware astatine Google I/O, but an announcement contiguous feels particularly unlikely: we already person the Pixel 9A, it’s excessively aboriginal for the Pixel 10 phones, and by each accounts we’re never getting a Pixel Tablet 2.

Unless Google decides to driblet a sneaky I/O tease of the Pixel 10 enactment — similar it did for the Pixel 7 series, but hasn’t done since — the absorption volition astir apt beryllium firmly connected software.

When is the remainder of Google I/O?

The bulk of Google I/O volition instrumentality spot adjacent week, connected May 20th and 21st, with Google’s main keynote acceptable for 10AM PT / 1PM ET connected May 20th. That’s close successful the midst of Microsoft’s Build conference, which takes spot from May 19th done May 22nd. With contiguous each astir Android, expect adjacent week’s I/O lawsuit to enactment Gemini center-stage.
