Google Voice Search Lands On Apple’s iOS (Video)

Posted: 31 Oct 2012 03:47 AM PDT

Google has released a new Google Search app for Apple’s iOS platform, the app will work on Apple’s iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad and it comes with built in voice search, which you can see in the video below.

Fast and accurate voice recognition technology enables Google to understand exactly what you're saying. Getting an answer is as simple as tapping on the microphone icon and asking a question like, "Is United Airlines flight 318 on time?" Your words appear as you speak, you get your answer immediately and—if it's short and quick, like the status and departure time of your flight—Google tells you the answer aloud.

So it looks like Apple’s Siri may have a competitor on the iPhone with Google’s new Voice Search app, the app is available to download for free from iTunes and you can find out more details about it over at the Google Blog.
