Find what you need faster with the Google app update

Google tries to make it as easy as possible to get the answers you need. Along these lines, you can now find the information you are looking for through the Google app without having to write anything on the search bar.

The giant of the web added today a series of shortcuts to its application for Android and iOS and Google.com that offer local options of restaurants, easy access to the climate, sporting results, TV commercials and much more. To see what is available, make sure that your Google application is updated to the latest version and then search for your shortcuts under the search box.

"Google's search box is great when you're looking for a specific answer, but there are also times when you just want to catch up on the most interesting topics," wrote Tamar Yehoshua, vice president of product management for Google on a blog. "You need to know if you're wearing a raincoat tomorrow, you want the basketball game marker last night?" Looking for what's on TV tonight or who's nominated for the best Supporting actress? "Google shortcuts will take you there."

To take a look at the new shortcuts, watch the video below.
