Google Search Fact Checking Feature Goes Live
After testing for several months, the new fact checking feature in Google Search has now been enabled for everyone. The new feature is rolling out now and it could take a few days for everyone to receive it. Just make sure you are running the latest version of the Google app on your Android phone. The new feature is pretty straightforward in how it works. Type in a search as you would normally do and if it is a search on a topic that has been fact checked, you will see a link below your search results with a source and if the fact is true, mostly true, mostly false or false.
If you want to check the validity of the facts, you can tap that link to go to the source and do your investigating on if it is really true or not. For their part, Google is trying to bubble up this information quickly & easily so you don’t have to do a lot of tapping around to check the facts of a story.
