I'n not sure which app you're referring to. I think we're talking about the Google app, also known as the Google Search app. A link to it is https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/google-search/id284815942?mt=8 It does run on the iPhone.

I think the other app mentioned is Cortana, which is Microsoft's answer to Siri, and I think is only available on Windows Phone.

*Subject:* [Bulk] SIRI LAGGING BEHIND OTHERS!

Hi all,

I've been a bit annoyed with Siri lately, to say the least, to the point
where I'm really not using her very much at all, but getting much better
success with Google (when I can get the iPhone app to work) and like
what I've heard of Quantana.

Well, don't want to stray too much from the point but I did try Siri
first yesterday, asking in various ways where the Poundland shop was in
my home town.  Well, I got nowhere and in fact would havge gone round
and round in never-ending circles if I hadn't just stopped Siri and
returned to the Google app.  I asked the question:  "Where is the
Poundland shop in Reading" and got an immediate response with the
address.  I was chuffed.

I wonder if it's time for us to make comments to Apple on Siri's seeming
lack of response to those everyday questions?

Have other had experience of Siri that has tended to put you off her
use?  If so, what sort of things have you asked.  Maybe someone else on
list may know just how to get the correct answer - but I know I just ask
in a way that I think should be understood and can't often remember a
correct method!

Anyway, I'll be interseted in others' comments.
