Google has several different unique iOS apps across their suite of services but with some overlap, for example: Chrome, Google Search in Safari, and this Google Search App.
We focused on a few core aspects: Speed, bringing personal & relevant content to the user (Google Now), enabling multi-tasking, richer & deeper experiences (Maps, Search suggest).

Bringing deeper experiences in Search was a high priority for us, and we did this by enabling users to multi-task more effectively when going through a search journey. Additionally, offering deeper native experiences on the search results page such as through our image viewing or Maps experience

Google's rebrand in 2015 was a critical moment in the company's history that has defined the design language for all of Google's products.
Worked closely with the seed studio within Google and partner teams for the implementation of the new design language, everything from the icon, Homepage, Voice Assistant, Google doodles and more.
