Pre-orders for Books on Google Play Now Possible Through Google Now
Launched as one of the main features of Android Jelly Bean, Google Now has gathered a very large number of fans and not once has it been appreciated as one of the best voice assistants available on the mobile platform. Since the initial launch, Google Now has seen a number of improvements that turned it from an awesome feature to a must when it comes to user interaction with the Android OS.
With the latest version of the OS, Android 4.2, Google Now got access to Gmail and is now able to extract and display cards for info such as package delivery or Hotel reservations. After Google integrated Google+ with the Play Store, making it possible to sign in using your account and have your social network profile displayed for review, it’s time for an improvement to the integration of Google Now with other services.
