Now you can even build working apps using just a prompt. That said, not every AI model that claims to build apps performs equally well, and Google wants to set a benchmark for which models actually work best.<\/p>\n<p>Vibe coding has quickly become one of the trends of 2026, with more people trying to build their own apps and services using AI. Nothing recently showcased a tool that lets users create small apps using prompts.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ba5374ca-083c-4ba0-9c06-c1c598d0ff21-2\">But anyone who has worked with Android development knows it takes more than just typing a few prompts, and Google wants to highlight which AI models are actually capable of handling those tasks.<\/p>\n<p>        <span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>To do that, Google has introduced a new leaderboard called Android Bench. It&#8217;s a benchmark designed to evaluate large language models specifically for Android development. The tool measures how well AI models perform real-world Android development tasks by testing them against a set of challenges with varying levels of difficulty.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:63.41%;\">\n<p><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Google)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3623726d-863e-4b56-9916-37fd308e2461\">According to Google, the tested models were able to complete between 16% and 72% of the tasks successfully. The model that performed best was Google&#8217;s Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview with a score of 72.2%. Claude Opus 4.6 followed with a score of 66.6%, while GPT 5.2 Codex finished third with 62.5%.<\/p>\n<p>The results show that AI models are already getting quite capable at helping with Android development. Google says the goal of Android Bench is to &#8220;close the gap between concept and quality code.&#8221; In the long run, the company believes people could build Android apps simply by&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/apps-software\/google-android-bench-ranks-llms\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google will now show which AI models are best at building Android apps https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/apps-software\/google-android-bench-ranks-llms Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":220485,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/WgvMUEtiWjgH7Rio2m2Kub-2560-80.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70],"class_list":["post-220484","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220484"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220484"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220484\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220486,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220484\/revisions\/220486"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/220485"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220484"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220484"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220484"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
