Think about it: making apps without even needing to be an expert!<\/p>\n<p>People often say, if you want to look stylish, get an iPhone. But if you want to impress tech enthusiasts, go for Android. And what\u2019s even more impressive? Creating Android apps using App Inventor for Android, even if you don\u2019t have an Android device or coding knowledge. I\u2019m sharing this because I believe everyone should know they can create too.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/appInventor.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"307\" alt=\"App Inventor for Android\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>2. Google Fast Flip<\/h2>\n<p>Fast Flip was made for those who wanted the best content quickly and didn\u2019t have the time to search the entire web. It showed users previews of important, new, and trending articles from top news websites. In just a click or swipe, you got the next great piece of content instantly. No more opening countless web pages looking for information. Fast Flip gave you exactly what you set it to show.<\/p>\n<p>Its simple design was ideal for researchers, writers, and anyone keen on world events.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Google Fast Flip is no longer available. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Google_Fast_Flip\">Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/fastflip.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"270\" alt=\"Google Fast Flip\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>3. Aardvark<\/h2>\n<p>Ever had a question and wished for a quick answer, even after asking online communities like forums, Reddit, or Facebook? Sometimes, nobody knows the answer. Aardvark changed that. Just a couple of minutes after I asked, I got a response.<\/p>\n<p>There were times when you wished someone could ask a question for you. Sounds odd? Aardvark had that feature. You could ask Aardvark to come up with a question for you. Pretty cool, right?<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Aardvark is no longer available. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Aardvark_(search_engine)\">Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/aadvark.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"340\" alt=\"Aardvark\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>4. Google Goggles<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/extract-images-best-ocr-tools\/\">Optical Character Recognition<\/a>, or OCR, was a game-changer. It turned photos of text into actual editable text. Google Goggles used this technology so well that even in its early days, its capabilities were amazing. Snap a photo of something you didn\u2019t recognize, and Google Goggles would identify it for you. No more struggling to describe things in words.<\/p>\n<p>It was also handy for scanning business cards and documents, extracting contact details automatically. Travelers loved it too, as they could photograph foreign signs, and the text would be translated into their language. How convenient!<\/p>\n<p>While the technology wasn\u2019t perfect, its potential was huge, almost as groundbreaking as the invention of the wheel.<\/p>\n<p>Google Goggles is no longer supported. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Google_Goggles\">Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/goggles1.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"329\" alt=\"Google Goggles\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>5. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.google.com\/\">Google Shopper<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Google Shopper had features similar to Google Goggles. It recognized objects with Android phones and quickly gave reviews and price options, including purchase locations. Imagine taking a photo of a product and instantly getting the details you need. You could also scan barcodes with it.<\/p>\n<p>If you didn\u2019t have an object to scan, no problem! Shopper had voice recognition. Check out the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=du_G_xJw8WA\">video<\/a> to see Google Shopper in action.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/shopper.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"286\" alt=\"Google Shopper\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>6. Gesture Search<\/h2>\n<p>Apps are great for saving time, and even though Gesture Search was only for Android, it was noteworthy. As apps became popular, people added many to their devices for convenience.<\/p>\n<p>But with so many apps, it was like a cluttered computer desktop with tons of icons. Finding the right app could take time and be frustrating. Gesture Search changed this. It turned your Android touchscreen into a search tool. You just had to \u201cdraw\u201d the letters or numbers of the app you wanted with your finger. It also worked for contacts and music.<\/p>\n<p>The goal was simple: make searching for your favorite app stress-free.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Gesture Search is no longer available. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Google_Gesture_Search\">Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/gest.jpg\" width=\"210\" height=\"350\" alt=\"Gesture Search\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>7. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/workspace.google.com\/\">Google Workspace<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Shared Spaces was designed to bring teams together to work on projects. It was user-friendly with many tools to choose from, like polls and mind maps. Think of it as a digital meeting room where you could add tools to help with planning.<\/p>\n<p>And for a break from work, Workspace (formerly known as Shared Space) had games for the team to enjoy together.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/sharedspaces.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"306\" alt=\"Google Workspace\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>8. Google Listen<\/h2>\n<p>Google Listen was a top choice for downloading or streaming audio clips, news, and podcasts on Android. Though it was experimental and had some issues, the team was always working to improve it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ref-block ref-block--post\" id=\"ref-post-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/free-music-online\/\" class=\"ref-block__link\" title=\"Read More: 20 Websites to Listen and Share Music for Free\" rel=\"bookmark\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">20 Websites to Listen and Share Music for Free<\/span><\/a>\n<div class=\"ref-block__thumbnail img-thumb img-thumb--jumbo\" data-img='{ \"src\" : \"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/thumbs\/250x160\/free-music-online.jpg\" }'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<noscript>\n<style>.no-js #ref-block-post-25575 .ref-block__thumbnail { background-image: url(\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/thumbs\/250x160\/free-music-online.jpg\"); }<\/style>\n<\/noscript>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"ref-block__summary\">\n<h4 class=\"ref-title\">20 Websites to Listen and Share Music for Free<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ref-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tListening to music has become an integral part of our lives.

Google Scribe<\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever been stuck trying to remember the next line of a poem in school? A helpful friend might whisper the next words, saving you from embarrassment. Similarly, many of us get stuck when writing, unsure of the next word or phrase to use. Google Scribe acted like that helpful friend. It auto-suggested words and phrases to fit your sentence, speeding up the writing process. With such tools, it felt like anyone could become a proficient writer.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Google Scribe is no longer available.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/scribe.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"333\" alt=\"Google Scribe\"><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h2>10. Google News Timeline<\/h2>\n<p>Google News Timeline was like Fast Flip, delivering instant content without the need to search individual pages. It functioned as a calendar, plotting search results based on their publication date. Ideal for researchers and students, this tool quickly became a favorite for many, including me!<\/p>\n<p>Google News Timeline has been discontinued.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-lab-experiments\/newstimeline.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"286\" alt=\"Google News Timeline\"><\/figure>\n<p>Over 50 <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/googleblog.blogspot.sg\/2011\/07\/more-wood-behind-fewer-arrows.html\">Google Labs applications<\/a> exist, and a third of them have successfully moved past beta testing, gaining popularity among users.
