Lenovo is expanding Lenovo & Motorola Qira, its personal AI experience, to more devices, applications and markets as the company broadens its AI ecosystem across PCs, smartphones and wearables.
Unveiled earlier this year, Qira will now support eligible Lenovo PCs with 16GB of memory, select Motorola devices receiving Android 17, and the moto watch ultra. Lenovo is also adding integrations with everyday services including Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack and Outlook.
Qira expands to more Lenovo and Motorola devices
Lenovo initially rolled out Qira across more than 20 Lenovo devices at MWC in March. The company has since expanded support to more than 80 PC configurations across its consumer and commercial portfolios, alongside select tablets and Motorola smartphones.
The latest expansion lowers the hardware requirements for eligible Lenovo PCs, bringing Qira to configurations with 16GB of memory rather than limiting access to higher-memory systems.
Eligible users can download Lenovo Qira from Lenovo’s website, while the company plans to preload it on supported devices at a later date.
Qira will also reach eligible Motorola devices as they receive the Android 17 update. The rollout will vary by device and market, with select Edge, Signature and Razr devices included.
Motorola Qira will also be integrated into the moto watch ultra, making it the first wearable to support the personal AI experience. Users can raise their wrist or say “Hey Qira” to ask questions and access information using Qira’s cross-device knowledge.
Qira connects with Gmail, Slack and Outlook
Lenovo is expanding Qira beyond device-level functions through a new collaboration with Workato.
On supported devices, Qira can connect with selected applications and services, including Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Slack, Outlook Mail, and Outlook Calendar. These integrations are designed to let users retrieve information and complete actions without manually switching between individual applications.
For example, Qira’s Catch Me Up feature can surface relevant updates from emails, calendars, and group chats, allowing users to respond to information from the same interface.
Lenovo is also collaborating with Notion, allowing users to connect their accounts to Qira to access and edit project information.
The company is further expanding Qira’s integration with Perplexity, adding deeper research capabilities and visual references for users’ projects and interests.
Lenovo keeps Qira focused on cross-device AI
Qira is designed around the idea that users move between multiple devices throughout the day. Lenovo says the system can bring together prioritized notifications and cross-device knowledge so users can catch up on information and continue tasks across compatible hardware.
“Personal AI should not be another app waiting for a prompt,” said Dan Dery, Vice President of AI Ecosystem at Lenovo. “It should understand what matters to you, move with you across devices and help orchestrate next steps across the agents, applications and services you choose.”
The company says Qira uses a hybrid, local-first architecture, prioritizing on-device processing where supported. Information added to a user’s personal knowledge base is encrypted and stored locally.
When cloud processing is required, Qira sends the prompt and relevant context needed for the requested experience through encrypted cloud services.
Lenovo & Motorola Qira currently supports six languages, with additional languages planned. Lenovo also expects to expand Qira to more device families and form factors by the end of 2026.
Availability and feature support will vary by device, market, configuration and platform. Some functions require software updates, user permissions, supported applications, account sign-in, internet connectivity or specific hardware and software configurations.
