Google has released an updated Google app for Android. It will now include Now cards based on data from over 40 different applications. As the developers note, the cards will be displayed on the device at the right time, and the user will no longer have to open applications to find out something.
For example, Airbnb will notify you which apartments you have viewed will be available on your travel dates, and TripAdvisor will remind you to save travel itineraries to your phone so you don't miss anything interesting.
And with the Ebay card in Google Now, you can quickly find the right tracksuit, and the Runtastic app will remind you of your workout in time. Shazam will remind you of the songs and music you recently searched for.
New Google Now cards will hit devices over the next couple of weeks. The developers plan to improve them based on user and developer feedback in the future.
