Google's search app for iPhone and iPad has received an update, making its voice search more intelligent than ever. Now, when you say "Ok Google" while on a web page in the app, you'll now receive smart answers about what's on the page.

Google for iPhone and iPad will now also deliver better local results. You can check out all of the new features in the list below:

  • Say "Ok Google" and ask a question while on any web page to get smart answers about what you are looking at. Try saying "Ok Google, where was he born" while reading an article about William Shakespeare
  • More detailed local search results
  • Copy and paste from anywhere in the app

You can grab the latest Google update from the App Store right now.
