Google Now update for Android brings support for 40 third party apps

by 11 comments

Google has updated its Google app for Android with support for 40 new third-party apps, including Airbnb, Urbanspoon, eBay, Waze, Instacart, Pandora, and The Guardian. This means that you’ll now see lots of new Google Now cards, giving you information that’s helpful to you, right when you need it.

“In the morning, catch up on news of the day with cards from The Guardian. On your commute, Pandora can give you recommendations for music to play, based on what you like, or you can be reminded to complete your daily French lesson on Duolingo,” the search giant said in a blog post.

The Mountain View, California-based company has teamed up with over 30 developers to bring you these cards, and it’s planning to add more cards and expand the feature over time. You can download the updated Google app from the Play Store – the update is rolling out slowly so it may take time to hit your device.
