Google Instant for iOS Goes International

That future has arrived, with Google today announcing that Google Instant for mobile is now available in 28 languages and 30 countries worldwide.

When we launched Google Instant for mobile in beta back in November, we announced that we would be supporting additional countries and languages, beyond just the U.S. in English. Today we're happy to let you know that Google Instant for mobile is now available in 28 languages and 40 countries worldwide.
