Google Announce Gesture Search App for Android

March 4, 2010 10:55 AM | Google | Software | Comments (0)

Google announced today Gesture Search, a new Google Labs app for Android-powered devices running Android 2.0 or above in the US. Gesture Search lets you quickly find a contact, an installed application, a bookmark or a music track from hundreds or thousands of items, by simply drawing alphabet gestures on the touch screen.

For example, if you want to call your friend Anne, open Gesture Search and draw letter “A”, and Gesture Search returns a list of items that have words starting with “A” even if your handwriting isn't clear. If the "A" you draw looks a bit like an "H", as shown to the left, "H" results will be brought up as well. If needed, you can also erase a query by crossing it horizontally: left to right erases the entire query, and right to left removes the last letter or space in the query. Now you can either scroll down the list to find Anne or write more letters to refine the search.
