Google prepares the sending of notes from the computer to the mobile
The search engine company is in charge of updating its services and applications An appointment to which the week did not miss the tool Google Search An application that is becoming increasingly important for carrying the assistant inside Google Now An increasingly essential part for devices with Android Wear, in addition to working proactive way to present information and perform tasks comfortably.However, the update of this application did not only bring new and interesting visible functions.
Thus, in addition to the possibility of showing search results with information coming directly from the applications themselves thanks to the deep linking (Deep linking), the people of Android Police have discovered more interesting functions inside that could be about to fall. And it is that this web page used to dissect the applications and look in their guts (code) for loopholes of projects or new functions that Google ends up entering although invisible way
This time we have discovered some lines of code buried in the application that hide what could be a new function to implement direct relationship between computer and mobileSpecifically, it would be the possibility of receive text notes directly from the computer through the notification bar Something that, for the moment, is not available to be used, but it could be a feature that is already being actively worked on by Mountain View
Specifically, the notification would show, according to the discovered code, the text “Sent from the computer”. In addition, it would be adropdown notification, thus finding two useful options when expanding it. On the one hand, save the note received through this system, which allows you to start any specific application where you can store the content and leave it safe. The other one is even more useful: copy This way the content is saved on the clipboard to paste it elsewhere later.
At the moment no more information is known about this function, nor if it will come hand in hand with any special application or add-on For Now it is reminiscent of tools like PushBullet, capable of sending links and messages from the computer to the mobile comfortably, receiving all that information through the notifications This avoids carrying out the same steps on your mobile to find a web page, or forwarding yourself an email with said information to oneself to open it from the terminal.
The Android Police team also wanted to carry out their tests with a very similar uncovered in the latest version of Google Search, thus producing images of what it would look like this featureHowever, there are still many details to be known, such as what program, tool or service will allow this type of notification to be sent to the terminal Or if it is a mere internal experiment ofGoogle Details that only time will reveal, perhaps sooner rather than later. At the moment Google has not confirmed or denied anything in this regard.
