Google has just announced<\/a> several\u00a0updates to the mobile capabilities of My Business.<\/p>\n

Business Owners can now respond to reviews via the MyBusiness mobile app (Android today, iOS very soon)<\/p>\n

\"\" Call Analytics from within MyBusiness – this was a feature that was rolled out<\/a> temporarily last month, but is now (permanently) available in mobile and desktop analytics.<\/p>\n

Another major feature just rolled out is the ability to receive active notifications of newly received reviews within Google Android App. This feature appears to also be imminent but not yet released on the desktop.<\/p>\n

According to Google help files<\/a>: Every time you get a new review on Google, you’ll get a notification in the top right corner of Google My Business. You\u2019ll also get notifications on your phone if you\u2019ve installed the Google My Business app.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

This system uses the G+ notification system so it appears that you can toggle on email notification if you so desire. I am attempting to confirm that as the feature is not yet showing in my settings panel<\/p>\n

Concurrently, Google is releasing<\/a> AdWords Express to 20 additional countries. Adwords Express has continued to improve on the client side, offering better value than originally and apparently, given this broad rollout, is providing Google with the success that they were looking for as well.<\/p>\n
