Internet search services provider Google, Inc., US, has reportedly released a major update to its iPhone app. Enhancements include a new design, new features and even a new name.
Google Search for iPhone, formerly called Google Mobile, now features a brand-new interface for searching the web and accessing apps. The mobile search interface is now more like the regular Google.com interface, and also includes quick access to Voice Search and to Google Googles, which lets users conduct searches via photos.
A new search toolbar that is accessible by swiping from left to right is claimed to be the biggest update to the Google Search app. This toolbar is almost identical to the left-hand column that appears on all Google Search result pages. Users can access news, image, shopping, video, blog, discussion, social and place searches from the new toolbar.
The new app also includes another feature - the ability to pick up where you left off by simply tapping the lower half of the page. The app also includes the familiar hotlist of Google's mobile web apps, from Gmail to Google Earth.
The app is seen to be dramatic improvement from the previous version. It is said to be faster, more intuitive, and includes a deeper stable of mobile search features.
