Google or Bing?

[rgar3388]

Would you say google or bing is the better iPhone app? Why?

Bing. The Google app blows badly. All it does is link to a Safari webpage. Worthless.

Bing on the iPhone, Google on the Desktop (mainly because I use Chrome as my primary browser).

I use Google on my desktop but I prefer Bing on the iPhone. The results are similar but I can query Bing orally using Bluetooth headset.

He he he, you said "orally".

Google all the way - what can bing offer that google doesnt already. Bing is very late in the game.

Google 100%. Though to be fair up until I saw this post I thought bing.com was annoying spam haha.

Actually, I'm far more impressed with Bing.com than I am with Google.com. As for the iPhone apps, there is no comparison at all. Bing hands down is the better of the two. It's an actual app and not a gateway to opening links in Safari like the Google app does.

For maps, I'd rather use Bing but it's too slow. For searching, Google.

I did not know this was possible. DO you just open the app and push VC on the BT Headset?

Yes. Bing on the iPhone, Google on the PC. The latter may be habit. Or even the way the browser is set up.

Google for sure, I hate Bing!

 

[sommerface]

Google.

A. I've always been a google fan.
B. I just don't like Bing..

 

[rmead001]

Whenever I tried searching for anything in any category of Bing it would just say no results found. I tried reinstalling it multiple times and restarting my phone itself. No matter what I did I never completed 1 successful search in bing and I have no idea why.

edit** and I just tried it again after reading this post and it works fine....

Google. But Bing is catching up. Very nice to see some decent competition

 

[jhamilton3]

I prefer Google.. Bing just doesn't appeal to me.
