Cloudmagic Brings Fast Cloud Search To Mobile Users

By Cornelius Nunev


Mobile email and Twitter search is basically broken. It is there, occasionally even via the cloud, but it has not been right. That was the case until now, with CloudMagic.

Mobile market sees CloudMagic

CloudMagic has been accessible on larger devices for a while but only recently did it make a splash in the mobile industry. The move followed a major service update last fall, when Twitter updates were involved in search results and their move to cloud computing began. Now, Gmail, contacts, calendars, Twitter, Google Docs and much more can be indexed in the cloud via OAuth technology.

The service is much better than the built-in search feature found in smartphones, which is essentially the same thing as the Google Search mobile application, according to CloudMagic and Bangalore Institute of Technology Representative N.R. Chirag. It is "surprisingly fast" too on iPhone and Android smartphones, as reported by TechCrunch.

"It is not only faster than native searches, it integrates your personal data across different online services. It is like one search box and you can search across all your personal data," he said. "Indexing Google and Twitter services is a start. There are many more to come. With the increasing online services, we believe one needs a fast integrated search."

CloudMagic is going to need a lot more, such as Dropbox, Tumblr and even LinkedIn, if it is going to compete. Greplin has a lot more goods accessible in it, as reported by TechCrunch.

The change to a mobile application

Even though CloudMagic was released last year as a Chrome and Firefox browser plug-in, it is not required to use the smartphone application. You can still use it if you would like access to CloudMagic search in Gmail and Twitter. The plug-in at first was able to index Gmail and Google Apps data.

Looking your email for things

In the past, the From, To, Subject and All sections were the only ones you can search with an iPhone with your email. Now, you are able to search for whatever you want with specific named. You could find every little thing with a PDF attached to it by going to "filename: pdf." CloudMagic makes email search much better.
