Google now ready for iPhone - Amobil.no

Calculates how long you take home, check the weather and much more.

The Digital Assistant Now Google (Google Now) has been baked into the iOS version of Google Search (Google search). This means that you, the iPhone user will now have access to most of Google Now cards that show relevant information on weather, transport, travel, hobbies, calendar appointments, currency and share prices and so similar.

Google Now has been available for Android for a while, and Android users get some additional features that iOS users have to do without.

Slightly fewer features than on Android

Among other things do not get iOS users select “Now card”. It includes boarding pass, the American film Fandango service and overview of local events, according to The Verge.

Furthermore, you do not get the seamless integration that Google Now has the Android interface, which includes smart shortcuts and synchronization in the background. It therefore means that iPhone and iPad users must actively open Google Search app to access Google Now cards.


how it works

If you do not know Google Now already we can say in short that it is a kind of personal assistant on your phone makes some automatic search for you. Siri voice service, perhaps some related, searching up and organize what you say verbally. Google Now save the other hand some regular searches, such as traffic on the route you travel to work every day, and displays the information on their own “short” in the app.

When you are done with the card swipe your finger across the screen to remove it. New cards appear at times and places as the “assistant” seems appropriate. By the way is Google’s own voice is easily available in the Google Search app, and locator goes through Google Maps rather than Apple Maps.

purpose Now features is that you can check several things in the Google Search app faster than before, and maybe check things you had not thought of, but still could be useful. When you are traveling, for example, Google Now automatically look up exchange rates, attractions and translations. If you are a sports fan, you can choose your favorite team in the app and get updates before, during and after the match. If you go near a popular photo spot will in theory emerge a “short” about this too, so you too can take a shot.

To access Google Now features you need to download or update Google Search app via Apple App Store.
