Essential information

  • The OnePlus 13s features a lockscreen shortcut that directly opens the full Gemini app, a functionality that even Pixels lack.
  • This shortcut has been subtly available on the OnePlus 13 as well — and it operates even on previous software versions.
  • Unlike voice activation, this shortcut allows you to resume previous conversations rather than just initiate new ones.

The OnePlus 13s has been introduced with a built-in Gemini lock screen shortcut, which is surprisingly absent on Google’s own Pixels. It’s the same useful feature that has existed on the OnePlus 13 for some time.

The OnePlus 13s was launched in India featuring a new lock screen shortcut that leads directly into Google Gemini. While the settings refer to it as “Digital Assistant from Google,” the screenshot from Android Authority reveals it with Gemini’s distinctive icon.
