The Google Search app for Android has been updated to get the new Google Now service. The new update for Android 4.1 Jelly Bean (or higher) users delivers information in interesting ways. The new Google Now update supports music playback voice control where you can choose music by a particular artist or any song by using the command “Play [blank]”. You can even choose from where you want to play the music. For e.g. you can ask it to play music from YouTube.
Google Now has search options where it
includes TV programs you’re watching, if you have a smart TV which
shares the same network as your Android device. The user has to tap on
the “Listen for a TV show” button on the card, and Google will identify
it. You can even see contextual information about the show while
watching. The update also includes minor changes like saved Google
Offers that are near you.
The Google Search app initially included
directions, flight information and calendar reminders, and now has
grown to include music that you might like, severe weather warnings, and
much more. The Google Search app is available free from the Google Play
Store.
