The tool lets creators build out videos using assets generated by AI and their own footage, being able to do things such as manipulating camera movement and angles, extend shots, all while being able to organize assets. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/10\/15\/veo-3-1\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Google built on the tool<\/a>, later adding support for \u201cFrames to Video\u201d which would let users provide starting and ending points for a video, with Flow bridging the gap. In April 2026, <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2026\/04\/20\/producerai-becomes-google-flow-music\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Google then launched \u201cFlow Music\u201d<\/a> as a rebrand of ProducerAI, delivering AI tools for music production. <\/p>\n<p>At I\/O 2026, Google has a few upgrades for these tools.<\/p>\n<p>That starts with dedicated mobile apps for both Google Flow and Flow Music. These dedicated apps will coexist with the web version and are designed for \u201cflexibility\u201d and the ability to \u201ccreate on the go.\u201d Flow\u2019s video editor will launch first on Android (in beta), coming later to iOS, while Flow Music gets the reverse with an iOS debut first and Android coming later. <\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p>Beyond that, both are getting upgrades on the back of Gemini Omni. <\/p>\n<p>In Google Flow\u2019s video tools, Omni will let creators \u201cblend real-world inspiration with generated content\u201d and \u201citerate conversationally\u201d on the output. Omni will also improve consistency for characters in Flow creations, preserving \u201cidentity and voice\u201d across scenes and generations.<\/p>\n<p>On the music side of things, Flow Music will leverage Omni to create music videos with the ability to \u201cguide the styles, subjects, and scenes to match the narrative and pacing of your track.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Omni Flash upgrades in Flow and Flow Music are available today.<\/p>\n<p>Other upgrades coming to Flow include the Google Flow Agent, a \u201ccreative partner\u201d that can help you plan and reason through brainstorming a project. Google says this could be used for things such as figuring out dialogue or \u201cplot recommendations,\u201d as well as being able to generate multiple versions of a scene to help you make a choice. Batch edits will also be available through the Agent. <\/p>\n<p>Google Flow Agent is available as of today, globally. Also aiding in quick edits, Google Flow Tools are effectively presets for the AI, letting you create tools that can resize video, apply certain aesthetics and effects, and more. This is also available today, with some early tools already available for use.<\/p>\n<p>For Flow Music, Google is bringing more precise, granular control over track edits, allowing changes such as translation or restyling only a specific part of a track instead of the whole thing. Flow Music can also now change the style of songs \u201cwhile keeping the original melody and structure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More from Google I\/O 2026:<\/p>\n<p>Follow Ben:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NexusBen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Twitter\/X<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@nexusben\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Threads<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/nexusben.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nexusben\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/9to5google.com\" aria-label=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1777325120_432_google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As its competition takes a break, Google is doubling down on video generation through Gemini, with Omni upgrades&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":680579,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[49,48,61],"class_list":["post-680578","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/680578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=680578"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/680578\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/680579"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=680578"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=680578"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=680578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
