The update also brings the Android AI Core app to the OnePlus 13. Reportedly, it adds features like the Magic Compose button inside the Google Messages app. This means that messages will now be processed locally on your device instead of being sent to the cloud, ensuring better data privacy.
However, it’s important to note that the Google Gemini Nano AI model is currently limited to the messaging app on the OnePlus 13 and isn’t utilised in other apps, such as the Recorder or Screenshots apps, which are supported on the Pixel 9 series.
