You can now search for iPhone apps when using Google’s mobile search page. The feature, announced earlier this week, displays matches at the top of search results on the Google site.
Selecting an app takes users to Apple’s App Store, permitting users to view that application’s listing, along with the name of the app’s creator and user reviews. The searches can be conducted either from an iPhone or Android handset.
The feature, which the Mountain View, Calif. company plans to roll out for other phones and more countries, is currently available only in the U.S. for the iPhone and Android-based phones.
Earlier this week, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced the Cupertino, Calif. company had no plans to replace Google on the iPhone nor create a search engine that would compete with the Internet giant.
