Google is slowly rolling out Google Instant to select android phones, and iPhone/iPodTouch devices running iOS 4 or later, two months after it launched this new search experience for the desktop. Currently it’s in Beta, but it is usable. Google Instant displays the search results as you type, Google believes that it makes search faster and saves valuable time.

Steve Kanefsky, Software Engineer at Google explains how the feature works:

Like the desktop version of Google Instant, when you type on your mobile device you’ll see predictions of what you might be searching for. If you type [anse], for example, you should see [ansel adams] along with other predictions. Results for the first prediction appear automatically, and tapping on the other predictions will display those results. Pressing the enter key or the search button skips the predictions and will display results for exactly what you’ve typed.

You can checkout the demo of Google Instant:

The feature is currently available only in the US, Google is working to add support for additional countries and languages.To try it out, go to google.com in your iPhone’s Safari browser and tap the Google Instant “Turn on” link beneath the search box. You can just tap the “Turn on” or “Turn off” link to enable or disable Google Instant.
