It didn't have Google now? That's like saying it didn't have a screen. It's just part of the operating system, and has been for awhile. Swipe left of the main home screen or hold the home button and swipe up. You'll have to turn it on the first time.

What you want to do is go home and tap the Google now bar at the top like here
You will be greeted with a message saying or giving the option to get Google now. Follow the steps and select the Google account you want to use with then now you got Google now. I had to do this on my new nexus 5

I'm having some trouble with Google now on my Nexus 7.
I want to change my home location but everyone I try it says "Can't reach Google at the moment".
What can I do? Can someone help me?

also when I pull the status bar down there is no notification about it and the icon goes away. I'm on stock 4.1.2
Hmm, looks...unusual.. You first thought was a music app or distorted weather notification. How long has it been there? Maybe try downloading "Air Push Detector" and see if that app catches anything?

I only have stock music player and google play music installed. And I know it's not from my weather app cause I remembering seeing this back when I didn't have this app. It's always been here, it shows up randomly for a short period of time and only on stock. And I usually notice it when starting up an app or I'll see it there after an app has started. Then I pull down the notification bar and it goes away. I got that app and scanned and 1 app came up but I remember seeing this status bar icon at a time I didn't have that app installed.
You actually get that as you would with 3 navigation on Aosp when you get the 3 dot overflow but does it with your notifications when you load something. Nothing to worry about unless it's constant while your actually on the home screen?

So after a brief stint with iOS, I'm back using a Nexus as my daily driver. But there's one single, essential iOS app I have yet to find a replacement for.
What makes Fantastical great is having the half month, half agenda view on a single screen. So far, haven't been able to find an Android app that does the same thing. Even tried combining widgets (which would even be ideal), but it's hard to find widgets that size well with the stock launcher.
Am I missing something? Anyone know of any decent alternatives?

Since starting to use my Nexus 5, I've noticed Google Now seems a LOT less useful than before.
Compare the beginning of the list of cards currently on my Nexus 7 2012:

With the cards on my Nexus 5

Am I missing something obvious here, or is this a massive step backwards? Anyone else seeing this?
It's not just the options, I'm seeing obvious differences between the two devices in terms of cards appearing.
Running both devices in Australia, both with language set to English(UK), both with Google Now's language set to English(AU).
My Everything Else has 16 options. Try clearing data from Google Now and starting over.

I have never seen anything remotely like that in my Google Now!
I think Google just made all of them baked into the KitKat version. everything is based contextually on your usage. So everything is considered on but won't show unless you made a search for it. Example would be if you search Big Bang Theory, it would bring up TV episodes. They're just trying to trim down the fat in the settings.

My Nexus 4 was like that but my Nexus 5 seems to only want to tell me the weather so i have turned it off.
I'm noticing it too. None of my packages are tracking through Google now on my N5, but were on my N4.

It's what I'm hoping is true, but I still suspect (fear?) that I'm missing out on things I otherwise wouldn't have.
I'm in desperate need of an application which can hide SMS from a certain person without any notifications. Have tried numerous ones from the play store but none seem to work on KitKat can anyone recommend anything?
try this one

Just grasping straws here, but could it be related to the carrier allowing it or not? I don't have the option either BTW. Try switching sim cards if possible.

Switching SIM cards didnt help. It's something with the phone. I'll try version 4.3 of Google +, but there must be something else going on here! So strange!
Hangouts missing? Sounds more like a solution than a problem.
