It's Wednesday, and you know what that means – yes, Google is updating apps. This week we've got a search update to version 3.4 and it has some good stuff going on. We're still checking it out, but it looks like automatic parking detection is a go. Or stop... whatever.

What's New

New parking card in Google Now

New reminders interface with better arrangement of past reminders

Centralized list for nicknames under Accounts & privacy

'Help' and 'Send feedback' are now 'Help & feedback' (one item)

Offline mode no longer clears all cards, keeps cards from last update

Open some settings by voice

More detailed Watch now card with episode numbers and other data

Download

The APK is signed by Google and upgrades your existing app. The cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and was not tampered with in any way. Rather than wait for Google to push this download to your devices, which can take days, download and install it just like any other APK.

File name: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox _3.4.15.1143430.arm.apk.

Version: 3.4.15.1143430.arm (Android 4.1+).
