Google released Lyria 3.5, a new version of the music model inside the Gemini app, and says it is available to everyone, free accounts included. If you have wanted a custom ringtone or a backing track for a family video without paying for a stock library, this is the feature to try. **Quick answer** Lyria 3.5 makes short or longer music tracks, with or without vocals, from a description or a chosen genre. Google says it is available to all users globally on the web and in the Gemini mobile app. The announcement does not say how many tracks you can make, whether paid plans get more, or what you may do with a track commercially. Check Gemini’s own terms before using one for a business. ## What You Can Make Google says you can select or describe a genre, choose between vocal and instrumental styles, and pick a short or a longer track. It offers templates for background music, birthday tracks, backing tracks for videos, brand jingles and ringtones. Google describes the model as having improved vocal expression and richer musical arrangements than the previous version. Those are Google’s descriptions. We have not generated a track with Lyria 3.5, so this article does not say how good the results are.

Google’s own demonstration, playing a track Google chose. Reproduced for illustration; we did not generate it and have not tested the model. Its opening 30 seconds also run muted as this article’s hero. For a sense of what the previous model produced, developer Luis Catacora posted a track he says Lyria 3 Pro made in a single attempt, quoting Google’s announcement. It is one user’s example, not a Lyria 3.5 track, and we have not checked how it was made. ### A Lyria 3 Pro track posted by a developer URL: https://x.com/lucataco/status/2096085852069740545 Author: Luis Catacora (@lucataco) Date: 5 September 2026, 1:59 pm AEST Text: Lyria 3 Pro made this in one shot haven’t even touched 3.5 yet 👀 Video: https://anrkjmgqmwfosbvyzrzc.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-media/gemini-lyria-3-5-music/lucataco-lyria-3-pro-720.mp4 Poster: https://anrkjmgqmwfosbvyzrzc.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-images/gemini-lyria-3-5-music/lucataco-lyria-3-pro-poster-v1.webp Alt: An orange circular waveform pulsing around a small dot on a dark background, with a thin progress bar beneath it. Luis Catacora is a developer not affiliated with Google. He says the track came from Lyria 3 Pro, the earlier model, in one shot; we have not verified that. ## Who Gets It The post says Lyria 3.5 is available to all users globally on the web and in the mobile app, and also through Google Flow Music, Google AI Studio and Google Workspace Vids. No country list is given, and Australia is not called out either way, so the global statement is the only availability evidence we have.

Developers get the same model through the Gemini API. Google’s developer account describes reduced noise, distortion and artifacts, regional accents across several languages, strict lyric adherence and native handling of bracketed cues such as \[guitar solo\]. Those are Google’s descriptions of the API, and this article has not tested them. ### Google for Developers on the Gemini API URL: https://x.com/googledevs/status/2095906053301088530 Author: Google for Developers (@googledevs) Date: 5 September 2026, 2:05 am AEST Text: Build richer music experiences into your apps with Lyria 3.5, our cleanest, most controllable music generation model yet 🎵✨ With the Gemini API, developers can ship production-ready music featuring significantly reduced noise, distortion, and artifacts.

Google for Developers is Google’s own account. The features it lists are Google’s claims about the Gemini API, not something this article has tested. ### Everyday Uses Google Suggests From Google’s template list, read on 10 September 2026. - Ringtone: a short track for your phone. Check your phone can set a custom file as a ringtone - Birthday track: a personalised song for someone. Vocal or instrumental - Video backing: music behind a family or holiday video. Longer track option - Background music or a brand jingle for a small business. Commercial-use terms are not stated in the post ## What the Announcement Leaves Out The post has no usage limits, no mention of what Google AI Pro or Ultra subscribers get over free users, and nothing about ownership or commercial rights in the music. It also does not say whether generated tracks carry a watermark. The announcement alone does not settle usage rights, including for personal projects. Read the applicable Gemini terms and Google AI usage policies before using or sharing a generated track, especially for a business.

Personal use is not a blanket permission; check before sharing or publishing. - Check the terms for anything commercial. The announcement is silent on rights. - Do not upload other people’s recordings as prompts. Describe the style instead. ## Sources and How This Was Checked All feature and availability statements come from Google’s Gemini blog post dated 4 September 2026, read on 10 September 2026. No track was generated and no account was tested. The absence of limits and rights information is a reading of the post, not a statement of Google’s terms. Three posts from X are reproduced as cards with their video and audio: two from Google’s own accounts, Google AI Studio and Google for Developers, and one from developer Luis Catacora, who says his track came from the earlier Lyria 3 Pro model. The clips are the posters’ own; we have not verified how the tracks were made. ### Official Pages Used - [Google: Create your best tracks yet with Lyria 3.5 in Gemini](https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/products/gemini-app/better-tracks-lyria-gemini/): the model, features, templates and the global availability statement. - [Google AI Studio (@GoogleAIStudio) on X: Lyria 3.5 announcement](https://x.com/GoogleAIStudio/status/2095905336393605624): the post and demonstration clip reproduced above; its first 30 seconds run muted as this article’s hero. - [Google for Developers (@googledevs) on X: Lyria 3.5 in the Gemini API](https://x.com/googledevs/status/2095906053301088530): the developer post reproduced above.
