Google Redesigns Image Search for iPhone, Android [Video]

A redesign of Google Image Search for mobile is now available for iPhone 3.0+ and Android 2.1

We focused on making it easy to quickly see as many image thumbnails as possible:


● The thumbnails are square to maximize the number of images we can get on the screen at one time so you can scan them quickly
● You can swipe to see the next or previous page of results, or tap the large, stationary 'Next' and 'Previous' page buttons
● We optimized for speed so that the images appear quickly when you browse

When it comes to viewing the images, we now make them as large as possible by introducing a special image viewing page:

● The black background emphasizes the image and the buttons fade after a few seconds so you can just see images with little distraction
● Easily browse through the images by swiping from picture to picture

To try this new version of Image Search, just go to www.google.com on your phone and tap on "Images."
