The Apple Store app for iOS devices was today updated to version 5.1, introducing improvements for the search feature.
Old search interface on left, new search interface on right
Some of the new search suggestions include options like “Stores near me,” “Cases compatible with this device,” “Sessions near me,” “iPhone upgrade information,” and more. Aside from the new search interface, the app is otherwise unchanged and uses the same design.
The new version of the app features a redesigned look for the search section, with both search suggestions and support for voice-based searches. You can tap on the microphone icon located in the search bar to conduct a search using speech rather than text.
