A big change is coming to Google Now. Aparna Chennapragada, Director of Product Management for Google Now, revealed at SXSW on Sunday that an open API will be available soon that all developers can build into their apps. This will give Google Now the ability to search for information from more apps than just those allowed by Google.
And if you’re curious about what happens when Google Now finds different info from two different sites, “individual user app usage patterns” will be used to determine which information to go with. That means that in a situation when more than one answer is being provided by competing apps, your personal app usage will be used to make the decision what Google Now will tell you.
