Google has introduced several new features to its mobile search for iPhone and Android, including the ability to filter results by star rating, distance and businesses that are open.
For example, you might only look for restaurants that are open right now, within a two-mile radius of your current location, that have a rating of four or more stars.
As I’ve recently learned, searching for nearby restaurants or other points of interests on your mobile phone can be a slow and painful experience, and this feature could speed it up considerably.
Other new features include review images in search results and small design changes such as bigger buttons for viewing a map and the ability to call a business.
To try out Google’s mobile Places search, open www.google.com on your mobile browser and click on the Places link at the top of the page. The new features also work when you do a search for businesses on Google Maps on an Android device.
