iPhone News: How Works Google's My Location?

Posted: 16 Jul 2009 12:16 PM PDT


Q: What is Google's My Location and how does it work on my iPhone? A: As of today, when you visit www.google.com from mobile Safari on your iPhone 3.0, you can choose to turn on My Location by tapping on the link on the homepage. And if you decide to turn it on, google knows exactly where you are, so a Google search query will now find places in walking distance. Q: How can I use it? A: When you tap on the "update" link, your location will be updated and displayed right there on the homepage. Whenever you want to refresh your location, just tap the "update" link.
Testing this in New York, my search for "jazz clubs" returned a handful of places within walking distance. I picked one, tapped the phone number, made a reservation, and we were set for the night. [source + pic googlemobile blog]
As always, your privacy is one of our top concerns. Google won't use your location in search unless you explicitly opt in. And you can always disable the feature from Preferences at the bottom of the homepage.

Q: I which countries does Google My Location work? A: As of today, search with My Location from mobile Safari is available in English in the US and UK. Look for other country and language combinations soon. You can also search with My Location using Google Mobile App, available from the iPhone App Store.
