Fret no further,Google announced that users can now find directions and choose from a menu of ride service options straight from its Google Search App or through the mobile search browser.

This feature was made available on the latest version of Google Maps earlier this year - featuring a dedicated tab with information for cab services in addition to the existing driving, public transport, or walking options.

Now with this integration, commuters across the country can ask Google for directions, and book ride services directly from Google Search.They will get to see a tab for ride services, both Uber and Ola, with fare estimates and pick up times if a car is available near their location.

In cases where the app is not installed on the device, Google Search will show a link to install the app.

With this, users will be ableto order, explore and make quick comparisons about the best estimated taxi fare directly from Google Search results on their mobile,” said Sanket Gupta, Program Manager, Google.
