New Google Search experience for tablets

Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:26 AM PDT

(Cross-posted on the Inside Search blog)

As part of our effort to evolve the Google design and experience, we've improved the www.google.com search experience on tablets. We've simplified the layout of search results pages and increased the size of page contents like text, buttons and other touch targets to make it faster and easier to browse and interact with search results in portrait or landscape view.

The search button located below the search box provides quick access to specific types of results like Images, Videos, Places, Shopping and more. Just tap to open the search menu and select an option to see results in one category.




For image results, we focused on improvements that enhance the viewing experience such as enlarged image previews, continuous scroll, and faster loading of image thumbnails.




This improved search experience is rolling out in the coming days to iPad and Android 3.1+ tablets across 36 languages. Give it a try by going to www.google.com in your tablet's browser.

Catch the London Underground with Google Maps

Posted: 28 Jul 2011 01:00 AM PDT


Today, Google Maps added public transport directions for London within Google Maps, including Google Maps for mobile on iOS, Blackberry, and Android-powered devices. Now, whether you live in London or are just visiting, you can get public transport directions on your mobile device.


Public transport directions in Google Maps for Android


Google Maps for mobile uses your current location to determine the best trip to your destination. Just search for your destination location, select it on the map and choose the "Directions" option. The suggested trips will be based on your location by default, and provide you multiple alternatives whenever possible.

If you're using an Android-powered device, you can also get public transport directions with Transit Navigation (Beta) in Google Maps. With this feature, you'll get alerts when it's time to get off the bus or train at your destination or to make a transfer. We hope that public transport directions in London make getting around town more convenient!

Google Maps 5.8 for Android adds photo uploads, My Places, and more

Posted: 27 Jul 2011 12:30 PM PDT


Today, Google Maps 5.8 for Android improves Places and Latitude with:
  • Upload photos for a Place
  • My Places as a simple way to manage the Places you've starred and recently viewed
  • Descriptive terms for Places in search results
  • Add a new Place on-the-go when checking in
Photo upload for a Place

When deciding on a place to go, people often want to know what a place looks like in addition to seeing ratings and reviews. You can now contribute photos to help others get a sense of places. You can now attach your photos to Places, and yours may even become the profile picture for that page. If you want to view or delete any photos you've contributed to Places, you can manage uploaded photos in the "Photos for Google Maps" album on your Picasa account.

Left: Uploading pictures to a place. Right: Photos in Android Gallery

My Places and descriptive terms for mobile

In June we announced descriptive terms and 'My Places' for the desktop. Both these features are now in Google Maps for mobile. Descriptive terms appear in search results for Places to inform you what businesses are 'known for,' such as their 'eggs benedict' or being 'worth the wait.'

Also, My Places for mobile provides quick access to starred and recent Place pages you've looked at. You can access My Places by pressing your phone's menu button while in Google Maps.

Descriptive terms and My Places in Google Maps for mobile

Add a new Place 'on-the-go' for check-ins

If you're out and about and want to check in, we want to make sure you can quickly add a new Place to check into if one isn't available. This might happen for new businesses or those that haven't set up a Place page yet. For example, let's say you're at Xoogle Xtreme Sports, a new sports shop in your neighborhood. You go to check in but don't see Xoogle in the list of places to check into and when you do a search still nothing comes up.

Add a Place when checking in, if needed

To solve this, you'll now see an "Add place" option at the bottom of suggested places. Select that option, and you'll be prompted to confirm the name and location of the new place. Then a brand new place is added (and you're checked in). This place will be available for you and others to check into from Latitude, but will not appear as a search result in Google Maps or Google Places.

We've also added 'Bigger text' to our experimental Labs features and 'Download map area' has been renamed 'Pre-cache map area.'

To start using Google Maps 5.8 for Android, download the update here. This update requires an Android OS 2.1+ device and can be used anywhere Google Maps is currently available. Learn more in our help center.

Find nearby deals with Google Shopper 1.5 for iPhone

Posted: 26 Jul 2011 01:34 PM PDT

(Cross-posted on the Google Commerce Blog)

We've recently made a few new changes to Google Shopper for iPhone that makes it easy to find nearby deals when you're on-the-go.

In the latest version of Google Shopper, in addition to the 'Shop' tab, you'll now see two new tabs at the bottom of the app: Offers and My Offers. The Offers tab displays a list, or map view, of nearby offers which businesses have submitted through Google Places - from restaurant and movie theater deals to discounts on tennis lessons or a round of golf.

Let's say you come across an offer for free dessert at a nearby restaurant, but you won't have time to use it until the weekend. You can save the offer for future use, then later view and redeem it from the My Offers tab.

Additionally, if Google Offers are available in your city, you'll be able to view and redeem your purchased offers on the My Offers tab. Google Offers are currently available in Portland, Oregon, the San Francisco Bay Area and New York, with other cities to follow.


Google Shopper 1.5 is currently available for iPhone users in the US and UK with iOS 4.0 and higher. If you're a current Google Shopper user, you'll automatically receive an update. Download Google Shopper 1.5 by visiting the App Store. To download Google Shopper for Android, visit Android Market.
