Google Now will give answers also without Internet connection
At Google they know that the future of searches goes through their assistant. Because when everyone has a smartphones in their pocket, the smart thing to do is pave the way for anyone to search the Internet easily and comfortably And if it's using its services and tools, all the better. Perhaps for this reason they have decided to take a step and, although not improve what they have up to now, work on being able to use it in any situationEven when you don't have an Internet connection. That's what they propose with their own Google Now assistant.
Of course, at the moment it is nothing more than that, tests. And it is that, as they have discovered in the middle Android Police, Google is working on making Its a bit more useful and practical assistant, even though it can't search the Internet because I don't have a connection This has been discovered after analyzing and gutting version 4.8 of the application Google, recently updated with few new features. It is not for less, taking into account that the most important thing was hidden under the hood.
These are several features in which Google is investing time and effort. The main one is the possibility of using different voice commands even when you don't have an Internet connection. That is, asking the assistant to perform certain tasks that you would otherwise , without the Internet, I could not perform.Of course, it will not be able to do magic. And it is that without a connection the issues are limited to tasks of the terminal itself such as making a call to a certain contact, sending a message SMS, start playing music or even turn on WiFi connectivity Issues that are far from recovering data and information from the network networks, but which allows Google Now to continue in the game at times when, until now, it has been left out of play.
Of course, as explained in Android Police, these features could also be reduced in terms of functionality. And we must not forget that Google processes orders in the cloud to fully understand what the user is asking for. Without an Internet connection, this wizard may not understand natural language phrasesIssues that we will still have to wait to taste.
Apart from this it seems that there will also be new voice commands to be able to regulate both the volume of the sound and the brightness of the screen. It also looks like Google Now will soon connect with the Chrome Cast system to bring functionality directly to the television screen. Other tweaks such as new icons for reminders and other functions with less context that Google is working on and that, at the moment, are difficult to decipher, do not go unnoticed.
In short, a job that can give more than a joy in future versions of being able to pass its tests and be integrated into this assistant. A tool that is increasingly capable and useful, even offline. Of course, we will have to wait until Google decides to enable all these new features in next versions
