Hidden Chrome for Android feature
automatically answers questions in
the search bar   



Google is bringing a very handy feature to Chrome for Android: autosuggested answers in the search bar. Right now, however, you'll need
Auto-suggested answers appear while you're typing a Google search query
with a definite answer. You can use this feature to get quick answers for
questions about basic math problems, weather, and dates for historical
events from right within your search bar.


On Android, the auto-suggest answers show up in the drop down menu
below what you're typing, along with other auto-suggestions. The number of
queries with auto-suggested answers aren't as expansive as the results you get on the desktop when Google auto-loads a search results page before you
finish typing. Still, the new feature comes in handy for very specific searches
when you're on a smartphone or tablet.

Getting started

Anyone with a modern Android device should already have Chrome installed.
If you don't, you can grab Chrome on Google Play.
Next, type chrome://flags in the address bar. This will open Chrome's flags
page with a warning that says "Careful, these experiments may bite." Now,
scroll down until you see the heading Answers in suggest towards the bottom
of the page.

Tap the button that says Default and select Enabled.

After that you'll be prompted to relaunch Chrome by tapping the button at
the bottom of the screen that says Relaunch Now. Do so, and you're ready to
go.



Auto answers

In my tests, I found the feature worked best on Android to find the weather
with searches like weather [city], and for math problems like the one see in
the image at the top of this post. You can also use this feature to find a
country's capital city


.
Other queries that get quick answers include when did [historical event] and
How old is [famous person], according to OMG! Chrome, the site that first
reported the new feature.
It's a limited feature at this point, but is still fun to play around with and to
have at the ready the next time you want to know what the weather's like in
Los Angeles.
