Today I noticed an update that Google is rolling out new search features for Europe to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA). As Google prioritizes in improving users experience with rich and relevant information for their searches and improving the visibility of ecosystem participants they are rolling out new search features across European Economica Area. This is a part of Google’s initiative to comply with European Union’s Digital Markets Act.

This feature allows users to scroll horizontally through tiles where they can find additional information like prices, ratings, and images. Meantime they are testing carousel for shopping queries in Germany, France, Czechia, and the UK.
