Google Now

[omniusovermind]

For those of you who have it, how much do you use it and how useful do you find it?

I use it at least once or twice a day, usually just for searching; although I do use it to check weather and to get a glimpse of my stock portfolio.

welcome to AC!
I have it. Use it once in a while. When I open it, it tells me I have a package shipped, etc. but doesn't do me any good unless I open it.
It should put that stuff in the status bar. But compared to my wife's siri, it is more accurate.

Depends if you are running jelly bean.
Swipe up from the bottom and it should appear.

What phone do you have, PGaskins? Like tony said, you need to have Jellybean installed, which is Android 4.1 or above.

Actually, you can install Google Now on ICS, but not everything is guaranteed to work correctly. You have to be running a rooted, deodexed ROM. Follow the directions on this thread if you are on an ICS ROM.
