Google to change forever on iPhone and Android phones in huge update

iPhone and Android users will soon notice a big change to the way Google looks as part of a big new update on phones.

Millions of people use Google to search straight from their mobile every day, but now a new interface has been introduced designed to make life easier.

Google will allow you to continuously scroll when searching, with new results 'automatically loading' when you reach the end of the page.

The old function, which will be phased out, splits all search results into different pages, forcing you to click through to see different websites.

The huge update to Google on mobiles means you can "infinitely" scroll.

"Today, we're making browsing search results more seamless and intuitive with the introduction of continuous scrolling on mobile devices," Google's product manager Niru Anand told The Sun.

"Now, when you reach the bottom of a search results page on your phone, the next set of results will automatically load with relevant information."

The update is rolling out in the US for now and will come to the UK in a matter of weeks.

It's not the only tech giant to be rolling out big changes to mobile phones.

WhatsApp is set to roll out three big changes to the messaging service - including a new feature that lets you 'hide' yourself.

The popular messaging app, which is available on iPhone and Android phones, is constantly being updated to make the user experience better.

WhatsApp's latest rumoured changes are likely to land this year and include an update to the 'last seen' icon.
