14 DAY TRIAL // Mobile phone users who are fond of making searches using one of the most popular search engines on the market today, namely Google, are now able to enjoy a series of enhancements the company has just made to the appearance of the service. Google Search for mobile, accessible via a web browser from an Android or iPhone device, and other handsets too, now comes with new button looks, new toolbar style, and more.
“We're always looking for ways to improve your user experience with our products. If you use Google Search with a web browser on your Android-powered device or iPhone, you'll see some changes to the look of the buttons and toolbars to a style you may now be familiar with on Mobile Gmail, Latitude, Calendar and Tasks. As with these Google apps, the color contrast of the style now adds more focus to the search results of the page, and the header controls are bigger to make them easier to touch,” the search engine-based company notes on its Google Mobile Blog.
Other changes can also be observed when it comes to the look of the service. Thus, users will notice that the Google logo is now placed up at the top of the search results page, which means that the width and height of the search box are now increased. Moreover, the larger box can now be easily touched for entering a new search, while the new big bold font will prove a nice addition when it comes to seeing what you have entered.
“We have also given our homepage some love. While this got the bigger search box last month, we have created a new search button beside the search box rather than below, so when search suggestions appear, they no longer hide the button,” the company adds. We should also note that the guys over at PreCentral say that the new look is available for webOS-based phones too, and that users can enjoy new features with it, including syncing of searches performed on the phone with those made on a desktop PC.
