9 tips for the Google Mobile App for iPhone

Great tips Matt, I just asked google what the square root of 1000 was and it told me in less than a second with NO typing, now we need voice for Gmail and Google Talk! Awesome app - Kelly Johns

I just added one more bonus tip that I forgot. :) - Matt Cutts

Kelly, I do like how the voice recognition works with the calculator. :) - Matt Cutts

Yes, and it works great for conversions, I asked it how many ounces in a pound and it gave it to me fast, the accuracy is amazing -- not to mention how good the local search is with easy to click telephone numbers and everything. A "restaurant" search comes up with some great local info. - Kelly Johns

woah Matt Cutts on friendfeed - nice to see you on here! :) - Zee from WeDoCreative

I just saw the voice search is turned off by default for non-U.S. users. To turn it on, click "Settings" and slide "Voice Search" to the ON position. - Matt Cutts

this app is really great. g did an amazing job. - felix

felix, glad it works well for you! I'll pass the feedback on to the team, but they probably read here anyway. :) - Matt Cutts

I've been trying various addresses and it works pretty well with them too though sometimes if I pause too long while saying the address the search starts too soon. - Loren Heiny

Loren, after some practice you start to get a feel for what timing works best. - Matt Cutts

got a video here giving a run through, works great! http://www.seanpercival.com/bl... - sean percival

this app just made 5 or more apps I was using obsolete! - Kelly Johns

the local search aspect of this is amazing, it knows your location so you just speak the listing you are looking for and it appears on your iphone, brilliant! - Kelly Johns

agree with Kelly. I wouldn't use it for regular search queries but for local search its great. Saves opening up Maps, hitting the locate me button and then typing your query. - Jamie

Android is the elephant in the room here. Will the G1 be getting a voice search app soon? - David Erickson

This looks amazingly cool - andy brudtkuhl

Just curious, what about Nokia devices version? - Majento

David Erickson, I'm guessing that Android support is high on the want-to-do list, but I'll mention it to them. - Matt Cutts

Sally, I think they wanted to launch with good U.S. accent recognition, but I'm sure that the team will be looking at making it work well for as many people as they can. - Matt Cutts

This would be nice for taking quick notes and reminders too (if it had/has that feature) - Paul Buchheit

How about opening the browser 'internally', like in twitterrific for example, instead of redirecting to the safari app? in any case, great job :) - george tziralis

Paul and george, I'll pass on the suggestions.. - Matt Cutts

Yes, keeping the browser within the app would be great, also the cool thing about the app is when I type one of my contact's name, it pulls them up on the list and I can click to call them -- however, if I speak their name it goes direct to a google search. The suggestion feature is amazing... - Kelly Johns

Matt, that's very cool but where is the native gmail app for iphone? - David Jacobs

Comes out tomorrow. - Paul Colligan

I can't wait for the voice recognition app to come out so I can talk about it. David, I like the web version of Gmail on the iPhone, personally. - Matt Cutts

yes, gmail on the iphone is really cool, I actually like searching for things better on the Google iphone app than on my computer. - Kelly Johns

Err Matt, waiting for something to come out just to blab about it is a bit...boring!? And voice recognition has been around as long as google...on phones even. Nothing new. It was probably reverse engineered from Dragon Naturally Speaking v10 anyways. Hehe. - Adam

Matt, I like the iphone web version of gmail too, but sometimes it doesn't format the mail correctly. maybe that's a problem with the senders html, but Apple mail app on the iphone works perfectly - David Jacobs

Still not in itunes yet! Will this be an update to the Google Mobile App if I already have it on my phone or is it a new app? - Kelly Johns

This is cool, but like most iPhone apps only popularizes stuff that's been around for a while on other hardware, and makes it work nicely. - David Hulbert
