Get Google Experience Launcher on your MOTO G

Screenshots of Google Experience Launcher:

Google has pushed out an update to the Google Search app, which now means there's also an update to the Google Experience Launcher. We've got the APK for you to install below, and this is looking like a substantial update – it looks like the new (and probably official) name for the Google Experience Launcher is Google Now Launcher.

What's New

Google says:

*Bug fixes and performance improvements

We say:

*New Google Now Launcher name with splash screen on start up
*6 columns on tablet home screens (up from 5)
*AirBNB reservations in Google Now
*Fixes disappearing icon in the hotseat bug
*Hotword ("OK GOOGLE") detection now works in British and Canadian English
*Icon imports from old home screen


Be aware, you need to have the Google Home stub app installed to see the Google Now Launcher. This branding also doesn't show up on the Nexus 5, which already has the new launcher installed by default.

APK Download

The APK is signed by Google and upgrades your existing app. The cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and was not tampered with in any way. Rather than wait for Google to push this download to your devices, which can take days, download and install it just like any other APK.

File name: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-3.2.16.1006154.arm.apk

How-to use 'OK GOOGLE' for activating GOOGLE NOW in your Moto G

 If you've seen the new Moto X and wish you could get Touch-less Control for your phone, Open Mic+ can bring it to you. The app lets you set a voice phrase that it'll listen for, integrates with Google Now for voice searches, and even integrates with Tasker for more advanced actions.

Open Mic+ is fairly straight forward. The default key phrase is "Okay Google," after which the app will launch, hand you off to Google Now, and tell it to listen for your next command. It works pretty well, and almost as seamlessly as the touch-less control built-in to the new Moto X. If you're worried about battery life, you can toggle the app on or off as you see fit, but by default the app runs quietly in the background so it's always available. It uses offline voice recognition, so you don't need internet access to use it. If you're a tasker fan, you can integrate the app with Tasker actions, so you can use different voice commands to execute Tasker actions you've built.

The app is available now, completely free, and ad-free. It's new and under development, so expect changes along the way, but we tried it out and it works like a charm. Hit the link below to grab it.
