Google Top Trending Searches in Philippines 2022

Google today released the Year in Search 2022, a compilation of lists–trends, news, personalities, shows, and more–that Filipinos searched for this year. 

 

This year, Halalan 2022 topped the Overall Top Trending Searches as Filipinos searched for information regarding the 2022 national elections from how to find their precincts, voting resources, and results. Precinct finder also made its way in the overall list at number three.

 

As the country continues to reopen, VaxCertPH remained in the top list for the second consecutive year. The certificate that proves a person is vaccinated against COVID-19 has become a requirement for travel and face-to-face engagements. Last year, the term landed fourth in the list. In 2022, as the world accelerates into a post-pandemic era, VaxCertPH moved up two places to occupy the second spot.

 

Year in Search continues to highlight how much Filipinos love consuming content online–whether it’s games or streaming–with five out of ten spots on the overall list occupied by games like Wordle at #4 and Axie Infinity at #9; and shows All of Us Are Dead at #5, Encanto at #8, and Jeffrey Dahmer at #10 (because of the show Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story). 

 

Online content consumption–especially streaming–is the third biggest digital activity of Filipinos after e-commerce and food delivery according to the latest e-Conomy SEA Report. The study revealed that 58% of Filipinos regularly watch video-on-demand shows and movies. 

 

The war in Ukraine also made it to the list at #7, showing how keenly Filipinos online are keeping up with global events. The war has been credited for the worldwide rise in inflation and slower growth, as well as being one of the worst humanitarian crises in Europe since the Second World War.

The Toshiba Air Purifier ensures cleaner air for the home as it is equipped with UV light technology

Having poor air quality at home imposes the same health risks as being outdoors due to indoor pollutants, gases, chemicals, pet dander, and allergen. Ensuring your home has the best indoor air quality can vastly improve your and your family’s health, as well as prevent any potential health concerns like respiratory diseases, and allergies, to name a few. With this in mind, many homeowners now consider having an air purifier as an essential gadget to provide another layer of protection at home. But before anything else, how do air cleaners work, and do you really need one for your home? 

 

To help you know more about the functions and benefits of using an air purifier, Toshiba Lifestyle Solutions, a world leader in home solutions, shares the lowdown on this home appliance and how they can protect your family against harmful pollutants, allergens, and germs.

Toshiba Air Purifier

 

First things first, air purifiers have a relatively simple function. They're effective at filtering out most polluting particles including on soft and hard surfaces like furniture or walls. High-efficiency filters also use a dense network of fibers and several layers of intricate weaves to remove pollutants and allergens measuring as small as 2.5 microns, around the size of animal dander. Some air purifiers have ultraviolet filters and use light to destroy mold and bacteria, while those with activated charcoal can remove gases like volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and smoke particles. As such, air purifiers can help with allergies, to a certain extent. 

 

Talking about your family’s safety and protection indoors, an air purifier will ensure your family is breathing cleaner and healthier air at home. It can also help remove or minimize unpleasant odors especially if your kitchen doesn’t have good ventilation. If you’re a furparent, then you must know that the fur and dander your pet sheds are potential allergens that may trigger unpleasant symptoms like sneezing, coughing, and a runny nose. An air purifier can also trap these allergens and reduce the amount of pet dander in your home. In short, air purifiers make your living space fresh, clean, safe, and comfortable.

 

This is the same principle behind Toshiba’s innovative and smart air purification solutions. For one, the Toshiba Air Purifier ensures cleaner air for the home as it is equipped with UV light technology that safely works with Titanium Dioxide, certified to filter air against bacteria, viruses, germs, and mold spores, as well as filter indoor air against bacteria and viruses. This also has a 21 Clean-Air Delivery Rate (CADR) which means it can quickly purify the air in up to 25 square meters of room size. 

 

Beyond the power of purifying the surrounding air, this air purifier is also complemented with True HEPA Filtration to remove up to 99.9% of harmful airborne particles including the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 to reduce the risk of transmission of the virus - keeping your home spaces safe while experiencing confidence in every breath in every corner of your home, anytime. 

 

With so much of our time spent at home, especially during these times, making your home a safe place to be should be the top priority. By choosing smarter, more efficient, and more innovative air solutions, you can greatly impact the quality of your and your family’s lives and create a healthier and safer lifestyle at home.

 

Toshiba’s innovative air purifier is available at all leading and major appliance stores nationwide.
