Glass may be a Google product, but it has felt detached from most of Google’s services for a little while now. You could navigate using Google Nav, but you couldn’t use any of the preset locations you put in Google Maps. You could see things you put in Google calendar as long as they got picked up by Google Now, but nothing else was available to you. Sometimes this gets fixed with third party services, like Evernote for taking notes and syncing to your phone. Google’s latest update solves a lot of this, with deeper integration with Android and Google services.
The first thing you’ll notice on your Android phone when you expand your notifications now is a quick launch for screen sharing Glass to your phone. This is especially useful now that you can control Google Glass from the screen share feature, making it much easier to share the Glass experience with others. Google search and Google navigation both got feature bumps as well.
Asking for your agenda will get you a quick look at your next five calendar events, or asking “what am I doing ” to look quickly at a list of items. Google maps locations are recognized in the navigation requests as well. You can ask to navigate to “Home” or “Work” and whatever your saved options are will fill in as the address.
