Craving for some late-hour munchies or a midnight snack but don’t know where to grab them from? Well, Google seems to have just the answer for that query and solution for that annoying growl in the tummy. According to the official Google Mobile blog, the past few months have seen the company unfurling various new mobile search features across the iPhone as well as Android handsets.
Now adding to the wide array of attributes, Google launches the new ‘Open Now’ feature that would help satiate the handset owner’s gourmet craving any time of the day or night. Through this latest inclusion, they will be able to receive a filtered local search result that portrays only the business and restaurants that are open at that desired time. This information is found through their listed hours.
Besides simply filtering the results by timings only, mobile phone users can also acquire results that are filtered by star ratings as well as distance on a global scale. There have also been new additions to make searching for the right location a breeze. The company has included reviews from across the Internet, images and bigger buttons that make it easier to call a business directly or view a desired map. The open hours of each business can also be seen in the result snippets.
Local search can be executed by accessing the official Google website through the browser. Owners can then opt for the ‘Places’ link which is situated at the top of the page in order to conduct their search. Whilst looking out for businesses on Google Maps for mobile via Android handsets, owners will also be able to take full advantage of these innovative features.
