iOS Safari Gaining Google Instant Previews

The word is for all you owners of iOS devices out there in Apple land, the Google guys are rolling out their Instant Previews feature to your iOS device, meaning the iPhone, Apple iPad, and iPod Touch one would presume.

According to an article over on 9to5 Mac, Google Instant Previews enables the iOS user to hit the magnifying glass which will pop up a preview of the website you are viewing in Safari and delivers a quick look at the website before loading the page.

Apparently with Instant Previews in iOS Safari the user can flick through the previews of a search query just like flicking through native Safari tabs. However the guys say they aren’t too sure if Google Instant Previews is rolling out to every iOS user yet.

Furthermore apparently Google hasn’t come out with any official announcement of this yet, so this could be a limited roll out for test purposes with a possible full on iOS roll out soon according to Gizmodo.

So keep you eyes open and if you happen to get Instant Previews on your iOS device feel free to shout out in our comments area below.
