Google Search is Testing New Short Video Results from Instagram and TikTok

The latest beta feature in Google Search shows video results from social media platforms Instagram and TikTok. Users will be able to watch video content from those two platforms directly from the Search app without the need to open the standalone apps.

The feature is making its way to a limited number of mobile users and is only available for a handful of search items among which are some NFL teams. The new video content will be available in a separate “Short videos” carousel below search query, similar to the current Top stories, Top results and Twitter results.

Once users open an Instagram/TikTok video from the search bar they will be redirected to a web view of the respective platform inside the Search app. Google is expected to add more search terms and more short video formats heading forward. It’s still unknown when this feature will make its way to more users.

Full specification sheets for the models we hold are indexed in the specification archive, each printed from the manufacturer document in one fixed field order. More news is filed under News, two phones can be read row against row on the comparison page, and how we work sets out where each figure on this site comes from.
