# Level up your development with Planning Mode and Next Edit Prediction in Android Studio Panda 4

**[Android Developers Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/androiddev)** · 6 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Android Studio Panda 4 is now stable and introduces several AI-powered features. Planning Mode lets the built-in agent create a detailed implementation plan before executing complex tasks, allowing developers to review and comment before any code is written. Next Edit Prediction (NEP) anticipates follow-up edits across multiple locations based on recent changes, reducing context-switching. A new Gemini API Starter Template simplifies integrating Google's generative AI into Android apps via Firebase, handling API key management and backend setup automatically. Agent Web Search enables the IDE agent to query Google in real time for up-to-date library documentation. Additional features include an AI-powered new project flow, a Version Upgrade Assistant, agent skills and permissions, and an Empty Car App Library template.
