Google Search gets deep app linking, hands free mode, Play Music also updated

Google has updated Google Search with a bunch of new features. The version 3.6 adds the  ability for developers to deep link app information through Android’s linking API. However, these features require developers to implement them first within their apps. Additionally, the Search app hints at Google working on a hands-free mode. It would introduce a new interface for when you are driving to offer you a simple and less cluttered interface.

Moving on, Google Play Music has also received a noticeable update including some redesign. Firstly,the v5.6.1616 adds two new widgets and the old 4×1 Play Music widget now starts at 3 x 1, and is available in every size up to 4×4. It also gets a new 1×1 “I’m feeling lucky” radio station widget that gives you quick access to some tunes that Google thinks that you will like.

Finally, the updated Play Music brings a “Manage downloads” section which shows songs you havve downloaded to your device and see how much space you have available. The update has started rolling out to Android devices.
