Google Instant is a new fast search engine that shows the results as you type. It works similar to the desktop search in mobile, it popups a list predicting what users are searching for based on what we type. The prediction’s results will automatically appear on the screen. To access the remaining results, users just have to tap their fingers on the other listed predictions. If they press “enter” or the search button, the predictions will be skipped in favor of results that match the exact search terms. The service is best designed to work for 3G and Wi-Fi networks, It can be enabled or disabled without causing the users to leave the page where they’re on. All one needs to do is tap the “turn on” or “turn off” link.
Google Instant search option is presently available for Android 2.2 devices, as well as iPhones and iPods running on iOS 4. As of right now, Google Instant is only available in English, Google plans on adding more languages and bringing the service to other countries and devices.
