Google has updated its Play Music app for Android devices and made it possible to play songs directly from search results.
Now, when users search for a song, album, or artist, the top three results include a “play” button that lets them jump immediately to those songs. Google’s own auto-generated search suggestions now appear further down the screen. Playing any of the results pushes the music player controls to the bottom of the screen. Google added this functionality to the Play Music web site earlier this year.
In another change, Google Play Music has expanded the availability of the New Release Radio playlist tool (initially an exclusive to the Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+) to all Android devices.
Google Play Music is free to download from the Google Play Store.
