Google Voice Search & My Location Now On Blackberry

Mar 25, 2009 at 2:15pm ET by Matt McGee

Google has announced the addition of voice search and My Location on the Google Mobile App for Blackberry. The new Blackberry additions are features that have been available on the Google Mobile App for iPhone since November.

The My Location feature lets you search without needing to input a city name or some other geographic modifier. Voice search is what it sounds like — a way to search by speaking your query.

Google had offered voice search as a separate download for its Google Maps Blackberry app last summer. They launched the Google Mobile App for Blackberry this past September.
