Search in Apps was first introduced at the Yahoo Developer Conference back in February. Since then, we’ve been working hard with mobile developers across the U.S. to build awesome in-app experiences with Yahoo Search.
As users spend more time in apps, we want to provide a seamless search experience that is always available, no matter what app they’re using. Today we’re excited to announce the Search in Apps integration with TouchPal,one of the most popular mobile keyboards in the industry.
This integration with TouchPal will roll out initially in the U.S., giving more than 16 million Android users access to Yahoo Search directly from their mobile keyboard. By bringing search to the keyboard, Yahoo makes it easy for users to find and share information from virtually any app they’re using.
To try it out:
- Download the TouchPal Android app.
- Learn more about Yahoo Search in Apps.
Over the next few months we’ll continue to work closely with Touchpal to bring more features to the Yahoo Search integrated TouchPal experience. Stay tuned for more!
