Now this is going to get you guys pretty excited. Ever since Google I/O, the most talked about feature of Jelly Bean has definitely been Google Now. The lovely voice recognition program that is making Siri quiver in that puny 3.5-inch display. People on ICS were dying to get their hands on a Google Now APK, but many attempts to get the formidable application on an ICS devices fell flat on their faces.
Well some how our developer have done it. They have successfully gotten a fully voice search working Google Now APK to work on ICS devices. XDA Senior member SilentStormer, was the first to tackle this project, but don’t forget, a slew of other intelligent developers lent their hands to the project as well. Basically how they accomplished voice search to work was they integrated ICS voice search in the new APK file with a little dash of salt, and there we have it. Google Now for everyone on ICS. Here is what SilentStormer had to say:
The app will use ICS’s voice-to-text engine to get your answer, and then enter it into the Google Now v5 app from before. All you have to do is hit enter and then congrats, you’ve got working voice search!
Well done you crafty developers. So if you have been dying to get Google Now on your device, here is chance. Make sure you follow the directions carefully, and run a backup just in case. Click the link down below and let us know how it runs.
