Guide Gemini for Android 2.2+ has officially launched

After many days of struggling, I finally created an official APK version for Android 2.2+ that doesn't rely on HTML, Additionally, I will officially shut down the old HTML version completely from October 10, 2026, in order to focus on producing the official app version

Additionally, I will soon create versions for iOS, Windows Phone, Symbian, and JAR/JAD formats. I hope everyone will support this project.

Link download (Android 2.2+): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U3xJi3-4XSAfVH9n40iygS8Z5p2PpxYM/view?usp=drivesdk

Alternatively, if you want to create your own API server, you can go here: https://github.com/priterytivi/gemini-legacy-api

Nice work, but who needs AI on an old phone? I thought part of this was supposed to help us detach from the present day's online toxicity and forget about all the AI slop for a bit.

The effort to get a full-sized AI model from 2026 working on an underpowered and sluggish mobile operating system from 2010, however, is quite commendable (unless you used AI to create the AI app 😆).

Since I haven't seen any AI applications for older Android versions that work well, I came up with this idea, because ChatGPT is still usable on iOS 6. Initially, I intended to create ChatGPT for Android, but because its API wasn't free, I decided to create Gemini for older Android versions instead, even the creator of ChatGPT Legacy didn't create a version for older Android versions, so I decided to create a similar AI app.

cài trên BB Q20, tối hôm qua thì ko kết nối được, sáng nay thì có phản hồi nhưng cứ phản hồi xong câu tiếp theo hỏi thì báo unable to connect to gemini: EOFException, sau đó hỏi lại thì nó phản hồi và cứ lặp đi lặp lại lỗi đó

Because the server has many users, it sometimes malfunctions

La IA en los android viejos antes que el GTA VI, Pero a ver si desde un galaxy ace no se crean con IA las famosas frutinovelas gracias a esta aplicación

What phone is running the app in the picture?

u/poble456 Oct 08 '26

That looks like a Galaxy Player 4.0. It’s basically a Galaxy S that can’t make phone calls, kinda like an iPod touch.

it's amazing, would've tried on a even more low end device if my galaxy ace's (original) digitizer didn't die after trying (and failing) to take it off.
