Google mobile app results now for Android, iPhone


Google this week modified its mobile search engine to now include search results of apps from the Android Market and the iPhone App Store. Above the regular search results, direct links to the app on both online app stores will appear. The search also includes basic app details such as its price, rating and publisher.

The mobile app results will only be returned when relevant, well-rated apps are found. Keywords include the app name along with the words "app," "applications" or "download." These new results are available in the US market immediately, with other countries and OS coverage due for the unspecified future.

    The question is how well are the reviews if they're coming from Google? I rather use a neutral site like RawApps
