In Image Search, to search a pre‑existing image, you can either select it from your phone’s camera roll (gallery) or enter a URL to that picture. If you wish to search an object that is in front of you, you can also take a picture from within the app and use that picture to search by image. This feature is especially useful when you are traveling and want to find out what stands right in front of you. You can also take a picture of any product or item that you see to search similar objects from around the web. Many users also reverse image search artworks to identify the original artist of an art‑piece, so they can accurately and appropriately credit the artist when posting their work online.
For any image you select, the app constructs a secure channel to execute a search. The selected image, through the channel built by the app, is passed onto the search engines. When a search engine receives the picture, it will display detailed results pertaining to that picture. This app is NOT affiliated to any of the search engines featured in it.
The search result usually contains other partially or fully matched pictures. The search engines also report any similar images from other sources. If the picture contains an identifiable individual or landmark, the search engine will display additional informative details on that individual or landmark. To do an in‑depth research, you can visit the website that the search engines find.
Get Image Search to initiate a free reverse image search. It will help you find more information on that picture you are curious about.
