New Features in Google Mobile App for iPhone

Google Mobile App for iPhone is the best web search app for iPhone. In fact, I use their voice search extensively to find addresses for businesses while driving. It immediately brings up the search result with a phone number I can tap to call or use the Driving Directions button to launch Maps.

Google Mobile App has gotten a new version and it has a few cool features worth mentioning.

  • A redesigned search results display that show more results at once
  • Open web pages within the app instead of switching to Safari
  • Bells & Whistles settings to style your Google App in any shade with a color slider
  • On iPhone 3GS, turn on live waveform in settings – to see a moving waveform when searching by voice
  • Also, you can choose your spoken language or accent.

Google Mobile App can also search your contacts! This is a little known fact and you can turn this on/off along with previous searches & suggestions in Settings.

A must have iPhone app for every iPhoner.
