Google has launched a new feature for mobile search that helps users on Android-powered devices and iPhones find and download mobile apps.
Google highlighted that with tens of thousands of apps available for both Android and iPhone phone, there are plenty of options to choose from when the users are looking for new apps.
“And it makes sense that if you hear about a great new app while you're out and about, you'll want to download it then and there,” said Marissa Mayer, VP Search Products & User Experience, said in a posting on Google’s blog.
“So the next time you're looking for the latest action game, multimedia app or travel tool on your phone, we'll show you a special result at the top of your mobile search results showing basic information about the app you're looking for, including title, price and publisher.”
