Through years, Google has become your saviour for every problem. Be it health issues, finding a job, selecting travel destinations or searching for a fancy parlour for your pooch, you all trust Google.

Even though you all use the search engine every single day and also avail the services of its associated websites like YouTube, Gmail and Chrome; there are still a number of features in Google that you are probably not aware of.

Trust me, these features will make your life a whole lot easier. For instance, these 7 features:

1. Google Dashboard

This stores all your personal information based on your previous searches. In case you forget your password or want to change it or find some old photos, this is where you should go. It helps manage Gmail, Android, Calendar, Location History, Photos, Bookmarks and YouTube.

3. Save Passwords

This is the dialog box that keeps appearing at the top right corner of your screen every time you log in to websites through Chrome, asking you to ‘save password’. If you ever clicked on the ‘save password’, this is the place where Google saved it. You will find the list of all your usernames and passwords here.

4. Locate Your Mobile Phone

For those of you who have a habit of misplacing their phone, this feature lets you ring the device as long as it’s connected to the internet. In case if you lose your phone, you can check the device’s location and even erase your phone content.

5. Control Your Google Ads

Ads can be annoying if they are irrelevant. But what if you can manage the ads appearing on your screen? You can, because Google tends to create your ads based on your frequently visited pages, web activities, the ads that you’ve previously clicked on and your Google+ profile. You can now manage your information accordingly for relevant ads.
