Of course, Apple&#8217;s own Passbook offers similar features. <\/p>\n<p>The app is <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/google-search\/id284815942?mt=8\">available in the App Store<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Google Now is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webpronews.com\/google-now-just-might-be-coming-to-chrome-2012-12\">expected to come to Google&#8217;s Chrome browser<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webpronews.com\/google-now-coming-to-the-google-homepage-2013-04\">possibly even the Google homepage<\/a> in the future. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Update<\/strong>: Google has now posted about the offering on the official blog, adding: <\/p>\n<p><em>In addition to the handy cards in Google Now, the Google Search app still gives you instant answers to all your questions. Try tapping the microphone and speak to your phone\u2014you\u2019ll get quick answers spoken back to you. For example, ask Google, \u201cDo I need an umbrella this weekend?\u201d and you\u2019ll get the forecast. Or ask \u201cWho\u2019s in the cast of \u2018Oblivion\u2019?\u201d to decide if you want to see it. Voice Search is particularly handy on the go\u2014try &#8220;Show me nearby pizza places&#8221; and you&#8217;ll see a map of restaurants around you with directions, phone numbers, ratings and hours.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=8I8jjdMBJRA:irqBOto7s4s:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/8I8jjdMBJRA\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google has made Google Now available on iOS in a new update to the Search app for iPhones and iPads.
