Google introduces new Android 17 features for creators

If you’re a creator, you might be spending hours on your phone — capturing content, editing videos, then posting and responding to comments. But imagine if instead, you could trade screen time for the chance to be fully present in the moment. That was our goal with Android 17: Deliver a suite of updates to help you, the creator, focus on what matters most.

From deeper social media integrations to new AI-powered editing tools, here’s a look at the creative updates coming to Android.

React in the moment with Screen Reactions

We’re making it easier to create reaction videos without the hassle of switching apps or setting up a green screen. With Screen Reactions, in just a few taps you can record yourself and your screen at the same time, letting you overlay your authentic response directly onto trending clips, wild comment sections or your latest gift guide. You’ll see this feature roll out first on Pixel devices this summer.
