Overview
- The European Commission, which outlined preliminary measures Monday, opened a process for feedback that runs until May 13.
- The plan would let third‑party AI services send emails through a user’s chosen app, place food orders, and share photos from Android devices.
- Users would be able to pick custom wake words to start alternative assistants instead of saying “Hey Google” or “Ok Google.”
- The Commission says Google now keeps many of these deep integrations for its own AI offerings on Android, such as Gemini.
- A final, binding DMA decision is expected by late July, and the EU could enforce penalties if Google does not comply.
