iPhone Finally Gets Google Circle to Search—but It's Still Limited
1 min read
Summary
Google is releasing an updated version of its ‘Circle to Search’ feature for iPhone users, allowing them to use their iPhone to circle any item on their screen that they want Google to search for.
However, the feature is very limited as it only works in two apps, Chrome and the Google app, meaning users need to switch to one of these apps to use the functionality, and in most cases, they will also need to take a screenshot to send to Google for a search.
The new feature is part of Google Lens and is rolling out this week in an update to the Chrome and Google apps for iOS.
For Android users, the company already offers a more functional version of the tool that lets users circle items in any app to search for them without leaving the app.
