Google offline search




Do you need to search/Google something and you do not have internet connection? Now you can thanks to Google offline search.

In the Google app's latest iteration, you can enter a search phrase and, if you don't have a network connection, Google will save the result; once your connection is reestablished, the app will open an alert that your search results are available. This feature is called offline search.

“So the next time you lose service, feel free to queue up your searches, put your phone away and carry on with your day. The Google app will work behind-the-scenes to detect when a connection is available again and deliver your search results once completed.” says Google product manager Shekhar Sharad

Say, for instance, you're on a flight and your device is in Airplane mode, so there's no connection. During the flight, you think of a term or an idea that you want to look up. You could either take a note or set a reminder to search for the term later. With the new offline search feature you can run the search and allow the Google app to present the results the moment your device has a network connection

How does it work?

First and foremost, you must have the latest iteration of the Google app. To make sure your app is updated, follow these steps.

Open the Google Play Store on your Android device. 
Swipe right from the left edge. 
Tap My Apps & Games.
Locate and tap the Google entry. If you see an update button, tap it. Allow the update            to complete.

With the latest version of the Google app, you're ready to test this feature.

Revolutionizing Agriculture: Precision Farming with Drones and Sensors

  Drones in Agricuture In the rapidly evolving world of agriculture, precision farming stands out as a groundbreaking approach that harnesses the power of technology to enhance productivity, sustainability, and efficiency. Among the most transformative tools in this field are drones and sensors, which are redefining traditional farming practices. This article delves into how these technologies are being integrated into modern agriculture, the benefits they offer, and the future they promise. The Rise of Precision Farming Precision farming, also known as precision agriculture, involves the use of technology to manage crops and soil in a more precise and controlled manner. The goal is to optimize field-level management regarding crop farming. Unlike conventional methods that rely on broad-spectrum approaches, precision farming tailors practices to the specific needs of different areas within a field. Drones: Eyes in the Sky Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), have become an i...

Early Detection of Brain Disorders: Using Wearable Devices Through Eye Movement

 Early Detection of Brain Disorders Using Wearable Devices Through Eye Movement Introduction In recent years, the integration of wearable technologies into healthcare has opened up exciting possibilities for early disease detection. Among these developments, wearable sensors that track eye movement have emerged as a promising tool in diagnosing brain disorders. Eye movement, which is closely linked to brain function, can offer vital clues in detecting neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, and other cognitive impairments. This research addresses a pressing question: Can subtle changes in eye movement patterns be reliably used to detect brain disorders before clinical symptoms become evident? With advancements in precision medicine and AI, the convergence of IT, biomedical engineering, and neuroscience is becoming not only possible but necessary. As a software engineer transitioning into bioinformatics, I see this as a pivotal opportunity to apply data sc...
