"Google has just updated its Google Mobile App for iOS, adding push notifications for Gmail and Google Calendar directly from the app.\nGoogle posted some new screenshots that detail the new feature earlier today. In a settings panel, notifications can be configured to turn Calendar or Gmail notifications on.An icon badge will appear beside the Google app when new messages are received and pop-up notifications will appear for Calendar reminders.\nUsers have been able to get push notifications from Gmail using the built-in iPhone mail application since last year, however, that has required setting up a Google account as an Exchange ActiveSync account.\nUntil iOS 4, users were limited to only one Exchange account, which limited some of the functionality of the feature. Although this limitation has been lifted, for users that prefer to use the web Gmail interface on the iPhone, push notifications are a nice treat.\n\n\n\n\nFor Calendar alerts, the feature is nice but less necessary. Apple has supported syncing and notifications from Google Calendar for quite some time and it's easy to add an existing Google Calendar or calendars to the iPhone using the native calendar app. \nGoogle has also updated some of its search tools for mobile search within the app for things like stock symbols, currency conversions and flight numbers. Much like Microsoft has done with its Bing Mobile app, results will show up before you even hit \"search\" while entering items that fit those parameters.\nGoogle will be rolling out updates to the Google Mobile app over the next few hours."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
