Google Search Inaccessible????
Version 3.0.0
The update sounds great if it were more accessible. You can do a few things but overall I find it difficult to use. There are still a lot of unlabel buttons. So it is still pretty hard to navigate around and use the app as one should be able to. It can be used if you really put a lot of effort in to it. The Voice and the Goggle are quite interesting.

google search update
Version 3.1.0
Thanks for Brandan for pointing this out of the new release. It it hadn't been a little nudge to check this out. I would have most likely have pass over this.
What can I say? This is the most impressive update I have seen to date for Google. In the previous version that when I had played with this app. It was almost consider fully inaccessible and was very difficult to make use of it. In this release. They have completely done an 180 on this app. All of the buttons are now labeled. The interface is now usable. The Voice Search is incredible. I can't believe the response time I got from this. I hate to admit to this but it is faster than Siri and better. Yowsers. Did I say that?
At this time of writing it appears to be fully accessible. So give this a try. Let us know what you think of it. Plus, let us know if there are any known issues that isn't so great with voice over.

Hi all,
I saw the option within this app to turn on Google Now. If I turn on Google Now, what editional features or things will it allow me to do? I really don't know what Google Now is. So if anyone wouldn't mind explaining what Google Now is for me it would be very much appreciated! Thank you.
