The funny thing about this update… iOS 6.1′s “amazing”, “must-have” new feature of buying movie tickets through Siri from Fandango, Google included with an app update to Google Now… Apple fail!

Why does the widget only display the weather card, but when I go into Google Now, there are 3 other cards that are not shown on the widget? Not that big of a deal but I am a bit of a perfectionist

Anyone else having issues with cards showing up now? Nothing shows up for me since the ipdate

It’s too bad that MikeyXDA won’t update Google Now for ICS.

On my 4.1+ Note2 the menu disappears instantly as I tap the menu key. Didn’t do this before I updated.

Add it to a full screen then resize it down AFTER. Worked for me on 4.1+

4.1, but this is still compatible. I’m not talking about the lock-screen widget. That’s only 4.2.

It shows up – but it’s only addable as a full-screen widget…when it really isn’t. I didn’t want to dedicate a whole page to it.

Did you see http://www.droid-life.com/2013/02/11/dashclock-designed-by-android-engineer-roman-nurik-fills-up-your-lock-screen-with-the-most-important-info/ – this lockscreen widget adds great functionality without actually having to expand the widget.

You’re welcome. Please note that I didn’t say it will be available BEFORE it started.
I’m simply explaining to you why it’s not available right now, not trying to predict exactly when it will be available… but you’re having a hard time understanding (as evidence by your NFL comment). I guess the concept just may be a little over your head. Good day.

It’s Google Now for proactive search like this. Google Search is anything actually involving the search bar or voice search. They’re within the same app, but the two functions are different

Works for me, had to reboot to get it to show up as an available widget in the launcher though.
