If you sync your Palm Pre or Pixi with Google, then this App is definitely for you. It provides much needed features, that are missing on your phone. It can search in your Google (or Google Apps) accounts for text in calendar entries and in contacts (most fields, not only name and company). You can choose between whole or partial word search. Also, it can provide an Agenda view of your upcoming events. Tapping on a found event or contact takes you to the day in the calendar or to the detail screen of the contact on your phone. For contacts, you can even dial, send SMS or Email directly from the results list. Contacts can be sorted and grouped by name, last name, company or zip code. You can even use the power of RegExp for some search types! | If you sync your Palm Pre or Pixi with Google, then this App is definitely for you.

==Running on the TouchPad== | |||
If you run Google Account Search on the TouchPad, it will look different because it is then a native app for the Touchpad. The functionality is the same, only thing missing is the ability to tap on contacts. | |||

====Turbo Mode==== | |||
Enable this to use the experimental Turbo Mode for calendar searches. This will reduce the size of the answer from Google to about 10% and so is usually much faster. It's not enabled by default, because Google has not finalized this yet. This is not available for contacts searches at the moment. | |||

====Fetch size==== | ====Fetch size==== | ||
This is the number of contacts or calendar entries to retrieve from Google for each request. If you do a partial (sub-string) calendar search, then it is very likely that for many requests during the search, none of the fetched events contains your search term. This means, that the lower this number is, the more requests to Google will be necessary for a search. | This is the number of contacts or calendar entries to retrieve from Google for each request.

If this is enabled, then passwords of accounts will be saved. Otherwise, you have to re-enter them the next time you use the program. | |||
====Check for update==== | |||
