Google Mobile App: Google Reveals Hidden “Bells and Whistles” Menu [Easter Egg]

Google had released the new version of their Google Mobile app for the iPhone with Voice Search back in November. Google had admitted that they are using undocumented APIs in order to use the iPhone’s proximity sensor to prompt a verbal search.

Google has just revealed that they had also added a hidden “Bells and Whistles” menu along with the update.

It takes quite a bit of effort to find the hidden menu, the extra options are hidden below the preferences on the Settings tab. You need to keep swiping your finger upwards (quite a lot) to see the “Bells and Whistles” menu.

Tapping on this menu reveals the extra options such as an option to change the apps color to anything you want, the option to have the app’s default sound replaced by monkey or chicken noises, an option to see live waveform show up as you talk and the option to open links in the app itself.
