Google rolled out a new mobile Google places for business app that allows management of a business’s Google plus listing via Android.

Google’s new Android app will let business owners update their information such as hours, address, content details and description. You’ll also be able to add posts and photos to your Google+ Local pages, respond to comments and +1’s , and so on.

Another convenient feature of this app is the ability to view statistics of the traffic being sent to your Google Places listing. Just like on your computer, the app can tell you how many impressions your business has had and how many actions were taken on your listing. This allows business owners to gauge the performance of their most recent advertising campaigns.

The app however has some limitations, aside from being available in the U.S only the app won’t let you respond to customer’s reviews nor does it allow you to create new listings. Additionally, Google doesn’t have a timeframe for releasing an iOS version. Depending upon on the devices your team uses, this app might be convenient for only a handful of people.

If you already use page identity in the Google+ app you might be wondering why you should download another very similar app. The answer to that is that the page identity feature enables you to view your business pages and use social feature, but you can’t use it to update your business information.
