Using the exact search this article describes, "Get Followers on Twitter" is the second result on iPad.<p>If this is the app that Apple considers the second most relevant result, I'm gonna say the jury is still out on App Store search.<p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/5Lca7cw.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/5Lca7cw.jpg</a>
The apple music search is also atrocious - that gets a relook as well hopefully.<p>I think in general, we (or at least I) have underestimated how good Google is at search, probably a result of how they have been monopolising talent for the last several years. This technical superiority (particularly in the machine learning space) is going to be a huge advantage going forward, as already evidenced by how much better Google now is than Siri.
