New Google Phone Lookup feature makes looking up numbers easier

Published

on

Google Pixel 8 Mint

Google Phone added a new Lookup feature, allowing you to easily look up numbers on the web. This feature was in development for a couple of weeks and is starting to roll out gradually.

Recently, Google released the June 2024 Pixel Feature Drop. The software is suspected to have included a new Lookup button for Android’s native dialer application – Google Phone.

The new button lets users lookup unknown phone numbers right from the call log. You will no longer be required to copy the phone number and manually search on Google Search.

Lookup button is available in the Phone app’s version 132.0.639579382. It is uncertain that the feature will get activated on your phone immediately after installing the recently released Pixel June Feature Drop.

Well, here’s a drawback of the feature. Phone numbers belonging to businesses may be looked up in the manner you want. Personal phone numbers have no identity on Google Search, making it less useful for individual contacts.
