Google Now helps you find your parked car

If you’ve wondered on countless occasions where you’ve parked your car, Google Now comes with the ability to remember where you left your vehicle. Google’s assistant uses your smartphone’s sensors to track when you left a moving vehicle and remember the last location you stopped at. It isn’t precise and Google admits the parking location cards might turn up even if you were commuting or getting out of a friend’s car. But if you consider having a feature like this as essential, then we're sure you'd ignore this. Of course, you can choose to turn the feature off or customize when the parking location cards will show up. This new feature is available in the latest version of Google Search on Android.

Belfiore even showed screenshots to authenticate this feature. There are third-party file managers out there but it is always better to work with an official one baked into the system already.
