'Google Now' for iOS Promotional Video Leaks on YouTube

The video has since been pulled from YouTube and appears to feature the same voice actress as the original Now announcement (which you'll also find after the break for comparison). Supposedly, Now will be accessible in an upcoming iOS app update simply by swiping up from the main screen. Of course, there's always the chance that is an impressive fake or even a canceled project that's only being leaked now. We've reached out to Google for comment, but even if the search giant remains silent, we're confident the truth will be known soon enough.
Google Now aggregates various bits of information that users may need throughout their day, including flight notifications, weather, traffic, reservations, packages, birthdays, transit information, stocks, movie times and more.
The original Google Now launch video is available on YouTube for comparison to the leaked one above.

(View all)lets hope theres some cydia tweak coming that makes it a full on siri replacement like it did with chrome
Wait, so there will be a Google app AND a Google Now app?
Or would the plan be for this to replace the old one?
Why not just add these features to the Google app?
Did you even watch the video?? Geez. Some people have attention spans lasting a few microseconds at most.
To be honest, Google Now is a flagship feature of Android... and Google are putting it on iOS. I'm not putting two and two together here, but I think Google know that iOS is winning, and are taking it very seriously. (Google Maps, excellent implementation: reviewers call it better than the Android version, YouTube app is fantastic, Google Now, well, let's see if the trend continues.)
And no, sales don't mean a platform is winning.
Google's product isn't Android, Google's product is the data it's collecting on you. What better way to get more data than to get more people participating?
