Google introduces a new “Quick Zip Code” feature for its search engine. This tool helps users find zip codes faster. People can now type a city name or address directly into the search bar. Google then displays the correct zip code instantly at the top of the results page. This saves time for users mailing packages or filling out online forms.

Previously, finding a zip code required extra steps. Users often had to visit other websites or use maps. The new feature cuts out those extra clicks. It pulls data from Google’s trusted location services. Accuracy is important for deliveries and services. Google ensures the information stays current and reliable.
A Google spokesperson explained the goal. “People need zip codes quickly in daily tasks. We built this to make searches simpler.” The company tested the tool with thousands of users first. Feedback showed it reduced search time by over half.
The rollout starts today in the United States. It will expand to other countries later this year. Mobile and desktop users both get access. No special settings or updates are needed. The feature works automatically during searches.

Businesses sending bulk mail welcome the change. Online shoppers also benefit during checkout. Errors in zip codes cause shipping delays. This tool helps avoid those mistakes. Google plans similar shortcuts for other common searches.
