Google has built a voice search feature into its free iPhone application, allowing users to query its search engine by simply speaking a few words. Unfortunately, Google hasn’t managed to gain traction with either of its previous forays into voice-input search.
The concept for voice input for search on the iPhone is a relatively simple one. Users simply push a button and tell Google what to search for. Then a window opens up to display the search results and everyone cheers.
Many people would be surprised to learn that this isn’t a new feature for Google at all. In fact, Google engineers have been toiling away on voice-input on a search engine for at least six years now. The company has released a few other products with voice input with little success.
