Google Now received an update for the latest Android KitKat alongside with the Nexus 5. Few days after, the iOS version of Google Now receives the neat update too.
Google Now for iOS is under the Google Search app, which benefits from easy updating compared to the Android counterpart. Apple’s iOS 6 users and above will enjoy the new features of Google’s personal assistant.
What’s new in the latest version (3.1.0) of Google Search app for iOS:
– Notifications: Get notified when it’s time to go
– Reminders: Never forget to put out the trash
– New cards: See tickets, boarding passes, & more
– Handsfree voice: Just say “OK Google” to search
The “OK Google” feature requires at least iPhone 4S though.
So head to the Appstore and update!
SAY not day
Tap on the Mic. say “how tall is Michael Jordan?” LISTEN for the answer.
You can day the words “question mark” to get a real question mark.
Thanks @techietech! Worked for me. :)
no prob.. :)
you can activate your Google Now even if you are in the Philippines. Just change your Region Format. Madali lang. Here’s how: Settings–>General–>International–>Region Format–>Choose “United States”. DONE!!
Google Now is not available in PH… too bad
@MPonteres: That’s only true for iOS users. Android users running 4.1 and up have it.
