Google Instant was launched in September, and since then it has made searching easier on desktop and laptop computers. However, Google Instant was not ready for mobile devices and was supposed to launch in November.

Google Instant could already be used on Android devices using a hack. However, it looks like Google is now officially rolling our Instant search on iOS devices including the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

Instant search is currently not available for everyone and will be rolled out gradually. There is no official announcement about the rollout, though several blogs have managed to get Instant search on their devices.

Are you seeing Google Instant search on your iOS device yet?

Update: Google has officially announced Google Instant for mobile devices. It supports Android 2.2 Froyo and iPhone and iPod Touch running iOS 4. Watch a video of Google Instant for mobile below.
