Earlier today, Google announced an update for Google Now by adding more card support within an updated Google Search app. Google Now is to the point where it can actually replace several apps on your Android device. With the new update, you can now do things like track your packages via Gmail, birthdays, track your biking/walking, and more.
Below we got the full list of newly added cards.
New cards:
– Events nearby
– Suggestions to help with your research
– Boarding passes from Gmail (United only, more to come)
– Search by camera when at museums or shops
– Weather at upcoming travel destinations
– Approximate monthly summary of walking and biking activity
– Birthdays
New voice actions:
– Post to Google+
– Say “What’s this song?” to find the song you hear
– Say “Scan a barcode” to find product info
If you are not using Google Now, you may want to start. You will thank us for it.
