Google is now offering a beta version of the Google Search App. The beta version, we suspect, will offer less stable but more exciting search features so that users can provide feedback to Google before the official stable version of the Google Search App is released.

You need to opt into the beta, which looks like this:

Beta users will probably get to test upcoming Google Now features, new user interface designs, exciting new search features and much more.

Google has not officially announced it, but they are displaying a Google Now card in the app asking people to try it out. The teaser says, “Preview new Google features: John the Google app beta program to play with experimental features before they’re released. Because you’re interested in technology.”

Here is a picture of that Google Now card:
