Searching on Android Just Got Quicker

0 views

Google has launched what it refers to as a "fast and versatile new system-wide search experience" for Android. it's called the Quick Search Box or QSB and it was announced for developers back in September. It appears on the home screen of Android devices.

The QSB provides search suggestions as you type, not unlike Quick Search Box

"QSB even learns from your habits and provides faster access to the items you search for and use most often (by, for example, moving them higher on the suggestions list),"

The QSB does search apps, but only certain apps support it. Google says you can look on Android Market for apps that support it and enable their suggestions from the system search settings.

Developers have had access to code for the QSB for about a month, so you should be able to find some apps out there that support it. Developers looking to add support can find information about how to do so

Found an error or have a suggestion? Let us know and we'll review it.
