of the Google application) recognizes a user’s repeated
actions performed on the device (including access of
common locations, repeated calendar appointments, search
queries, etc.). This information is then used to display more
relevant information to the user in the form of “cards”. These
scrollable on-screen cards are displayed when the Google

These cards are not manually added.
The service uses your GPS, Google Search, and usage
information to generate these cards automatically.
