Bing Unveils Responsive Design for Image Search
As part of its mission to improve the user experience, Bing has announced its roadmap for improving image search.
The first step includes features that are adaptable based on the users query, resolution, and interaction. This new release also includes optimization for touchscreen devices. Below is an example of the old and new versions of Bing image search.
Tablet devices were a key factor in the direction that Bing has taken its image search. Tablet users can now swipe through inline carousels in search results. Bing describes the new format as "responsive, fast, and fluid."
When it comes to mobile devices, Bing shared the following:
"Our mobile experience has already gone through similar changes and will feel very familiar to you after using this experience."
One of Bings more recent upgrades included the addition of Pinterest board searches. Since launching this feature as well as refinement and exploration suggestions have proven to be the most popular.
Because users want instant access to refine their search, Bing has added a mini-header that will slide with the users screen as they scroll down. This header is designed to create quick access without interrupting the search experience.
