Google Optimizes Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Mobile for iPad

Google has announced that they've optimized Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, and Google Mobile App for the iPad.

While surfing the web on your iPad, we expect many of you will want to check your Gmail. If you go to gmail.com in your browser, you’ll see something different than what you’re used to on the desktop. We’re releasing an experimental user interface for the iPad built on the Gmail for mobile HTML5 web app that we launched last year for the iPhone and Android devices.

To try this new interface simply go to gmail.com in mobile Safari. For quick access you can always add a link to your homescreen.


In addition Google has optimized its native applications for the iPad...

The YouTube app for iPad is built-in, so you can watch HD videos and read and write comments. The new Maps app on iPad takes advantage of high-resolution satellite and Street View imagery, includes a new terrain view, and lets you search for local businesses and get directions. Just like on the iPhone, you can also go to the App Store to download Google Mobile App with search by voice. Of course, Google Mobile App was originally designed for the iPhone’s screen dimensions, but we’ve adapted it to work on the iPad and we’re looking into new ideas to make the app even better.
