Desk: Google has launched its new and upgraded Google app for Windows users globally. This app now provides an AI powered search experience directly on the computer, allowing users to ask questions and get answers without opening the browser. In this, features like system wide search, AI mode and Google Lens have been added in a single platform. The company claims that this will reduce interruptions during work and users will be able to get information more quickly.
The biggest feature of this new app from Google is its system wide search feature, which gives an experience like Mac’s Spotlight. Users can start the search immediately by pressing Alt + Space shortcut. Through this, they can access the web, local files, installed apps and Google Drive content from one place. This means that now there will be no need to open different apps or tabs. This feature is especially beneficial for those people who do various types of work on the computer every day and want quick information.
AI mode has also been included in this app, which makes it smarter. Users can type any question directly into the app and will get AI generated answers along with relevant web links. The special thing is that users can also ask follow up questions, which gives it a conversation like experience. It is different from traditional search, because it provides not only links but also explanatory answers. This can be of great help to both students and professionals.
Google Lens and Screen Aware feature is also provided in this app, which makes it more useful. Users can select any part of their screen or the entire desktop and ask questions related to it. With the help of Google Lens, the text of an image or webpage can be searched, translated or analyzed. This feature is especially beneficial for those who want quick information while working. The app runs on Windows 10 or newer systems and is currently only available in English, with AI mode not yet fully available to all users or regions.
