NEWLY LANCHED GOOGLE SEARCH APP FOR iOS DEVICES IS NOW AVAILABLE
NEWLY LANCHED GOOGLE SEARCH APP FOR iOS DEVICES IS NOW AVAILABLE
And finally Google just made it official as she launches the new google search application on iphone and other devices using iOS. This means users of iOS gadget like iphone, and ipad can conveniently make use of Google search and display Google search result. like they will do on their web browser. The app bears similar looks and feel with the Android Google search app.
This serves as a stepping stone that shows more Google products and app will now be available for iOS Users as well. The main differences between Android and iOS are few, mainly in that iOS can display fewer different kinds of cards. "The types of Google Now cards available are largely the same on both platforms," says Baris Gultekin, Director of Product Management for Google Now.
Differences betwwen the new iOS Search App and that of Android
On iOS, it is so imposible to launched the Google Search app with a system-wide shortcut (unless you are a jail breaker) and it cant do the same kind of background sync that Now can do on Android. However, Google tells us that it will support the iOS background location feature, so that at least it wont need to spend as long hunting for your position when you open up the Search app. It also wont use iOS notification system to push high-priority Now alerts as you can do on Android. 22 of the 29 card types available on Android are making their way to iOS, and the few holdouts include airline boarding passes, Fandango, and local events. Google Now will be able to display your next available appointment, but it will only pull that information from your Google Calendar, not the local calendar.
Android, of course, allows Google Now to be accessed with a swipe-up or long-press of a button on some phones, but its worth pointing out that it might actually be available on fewer devices than on iOS thanks to minimum OS requirements.
Apples hardware, Googles cloud services
Google has long said that it wants to make its services available on as many platforms as possible, but recent moves indicate that, when it comes to mobile, those platforms mainly include iOS and Android. Its notable that Google isnt holding back some of its best service features as Android exclusives, but Gultekin points out that Google still believes that Android offers a superior feature set for its products: "As with many Google products, Android (and Nexus devices) always give you the best Google experience, but we aim to make our services available to as many people as possible. Android offers more integration opportunities than iOS." Even so, the number and quality of Googles apps on iOS mean that heavy Google services users dont have as much incentive as they once did to stick with an Android device.
The updated Google Search app with Google Now is available in Apples App Store now.
