Our phones aren't going anywhere...working on our phones isn't going anywhere.
With so much information on your phone, how do you find everything?
Defining the best mobile search depends on what your needs are. Do you want search primarily for the web? Or to find stuff on your phone? Most mobile search engines combine both web and device results, usually with a prioritization of one over the other. Essentially, it comes down to finding the right one for your needs.
We believe mobile search can be reinvented by focusing less on web search results, and more on what the user already has on their phone.
Search on mobile should be more about finding the information fragmented across dozens of apps rather than strong web results and weak device search.
Users should be able to search the content they have on their phone, the information buried inside their apps, and the web, if needed.
From remembering where you parked your car to entertaining you with Candy Crush Saga, your phone has an app for everything.

Nurses are required to instantly recall a plethora of information on the job. And while we’d all love a perfect memory, you’ll have to be satisfied with the next best thing. That is, using Android apps which ensure instant access to up-to-date knowledge.
Our goal in building WhereDat was to build the Spotlight Search for Android.
Of course, the iOS operating system is quite different than the Android OS, so there are distinct differences.
We put up some screenshots side by side so you can see the differences between Spotlight Search and WhereDat.

After all, who wouldn’t be more productive with an extra hour or two in the morning?
The hardest part isn't just waking up in the morning, it's going to bed on time the night before, so when you wake up early you'll actually be coherent enough to get something done.

A study conducted at the Institute of Psychiatry found that multitasking (usually in the form of incoming e-mail and phone calls) lowers your IQ by as much as 10 points.
As though a lower IQ wasn’t enough reason to put the phone on silent, there’s reason to believe that the cognitive impairment from multitasking isn’t temporary. Research suggests that repeated multitasking can alter the structure of your brain over time...
We did 4 tests--two to show search speed, and another two to show app efficiency. In case you do not feel like reading through the following results, we created a handy infographic compiling our findings...
From the beginning, WhereDat was built to utilize both deep links and deep search. We built it that way because it's the fastest way to search, allowing our app to search both your phone content and the content inside your apps. That's the cool part...
