Here’s how to watch Google I/O 2021 keynote and other virtual sessions online

Google I/O is one of the biggest tech events every year. It draws the attention of developers and enthusiast users watching out for new features making their way to Android and Google’s ecosystem of smart home products. Like last year, Google I/O 2021 is a free-to-attend event hosted completely virtually due to the global pandemic. The event will be hosted from May 18th through May 20th, with various online sessions discussing new changes. While we expect to see many announcements related to Android 12, there is other stuff to watch out for at the event. If you are interested in being part of the gala, here’s how you can watch Google I/O 2021.
