Google has introduced a potentially game-changing update for its Android app that provides offline features for its search results.

Searches made while offline will now be saved and automatically run as soon as the the device gets an internet connection again.

This is particularly useful when faced with a spotty or unreliable data connection, as millions of frustrated mobile users can attest.

"So the next time you lose service, feel free to queue up your searches, put your phone away and carry on with your day. The Google app will work behind-the-scenes to detect when a connection is available again and deliver your search results once completed," Google product manager Shekhar Sharad wrote in a blog post.

Sharad said the feature "won't drain your battery" and will "minimally" impact data usage.

Any pending searches will be stored in the Google app under the Manage Searches option.
