Google Now Launcher

Upgrade the launcher on your device to make Google Now one swipe away.

From your primary home screen, swipe right to access Google Now cards that give you just the right information, at just the right time.

Available on all devices with Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) or later.

Key features:

• Google Now on your home screen – it's easier than ever to get just the right information at just the right time.

• Just say "OK, Google" – when you're on your home screen, just say OK, Google to trigger voice input.
Then say your search query. Or tell your phone what to do, like send a text message, get directions or play a song.
• Faster search – tap the search box and you can enter your query immediately.
• Easy access to your favourite Google products and services, like Gmail, YouTube and Maps.
• Larger viewing area – the status and navigation bars are now translucent, so your wallpaper pops from every pixel, and is even visible when you expand your apps drawer (when supported by device).
• Intuitive wallpaper picker – select any image that is stored on your device, or in the Cloud. Position and preview your wallpaper before you set it.

Some features are unavailable in some areas.
