I didn't know this until today and wanted to share.
Just open up your phone's camera, get whatever it is you want into the frame, and then press and hold your finger down onto that area of the viewfinder for a second or so. You'll see an animated circle show up around your finger, with all sorts of purdy colors... Immediately, you see the results.
The fastest way is to double-tap the power button and then press and hold the area on the screen.
Edit: Thank you for all the awards and the gold. It's my first time! Glad so many of you find this helpful.
You can get it for the iPhone besides just android (although I don't know if apple has something similar).
The mobile eBay app used to have a camera function but it seems they got rid of it, I tried the lens app and it works better anyway.
It's not 100% perfect, but it's great for identifying silverware patterns, patterns on China, foreign coins with non roman alphabet text, sculptures, paintings, you name it. It's a hell of a lot faster than trying to use reference material.
I imagine it will be a matter of time before someone makes a wearable camera and real time AI where you can literally walk through a yard sale and have it alert you to high priced items.
Google just forced desktop users to switch over to their stupid mobile app Lens in the right-click context menu, after the same release came with a UAF vulnerability in V8 for 2.5 billion devices.
Lens is trash. I just wanted to test it out, so I used Image Search and Lens on the same image, and Lens came back with "No results found for the selected area" and Image Search came back with "About 294 results (1,06 seconds)".
Is that the "new machine learning and AI capabilities" they're trying to get over people with?
There's no excuse. Just another example of how out-of-touch and half-baked the chrome devs are, they take a year to roll out broken software and deactivate what worked.
How long until they deactivate "chrome://flags/#enable-lens-region-search" like all the other chrome flag fixes? Knowing Google they're probably going to deactivate Image Search instead to eliminate competition with a better product.

It seems to be removed, I've enabled screen context for assistant but it's not the same thing. I.e. I'm looking at my appointment confirmation for a booster shot on my phone right now, I used to be able to ask Google "whats on my screen" or tap the Google Lens icon next to the assistant pop up, and it would suggest adding that to calendar.
WHY WAS THIS REMOVED?? Am I just missing something? It was so useful
Pixel 6 Nov patch
It doesn't have key features like displaying the same image with different sizes. Now my phone can only search via Google lens.
In the past ive used pixel based roms, where you could use google lens to copy text from an image by opening the app switcher and long pressing. It eliminates the need for taking a screenshot and then opening gallery to use lens.
Does OOS(11) have this feature? Is there some other way where i can use google lens without taking a screenshot ?
Many times with older pieces that don’t have piece numbers, or things like figures, printed pieces, etc. I’ve used the reverse image search feature to search for the piece. It has rarely failed to find the piece somewhere so I can figure out what it is called and what it is from. I don’t see this talked about often so thought it was worth a mention.
Google is upgrading Lens so much that I want to use it more, but it's not as forefront as I think it should be. If they had it as an option to launch by double tapping the back of the phone, the way they added launching "Snap", I think that would be a game changer. I know you can launch the camera by double clicking the power button, but it launches the camera first. I want to launch the Lens main page, where it asks you to choose pics from your roll or use the camera. Because I just saw that this is now a feature in the latest Chrome app.

1)Miranjo killed Bojji's mother.But somehow she also died in the process as well.You can ask and I will elaborate in the comments.
2)When miranjo was at her last she made another deal with the demon to save her life. The demon placed her soul in the mirror with this in return. "When the time comes that miranjo actually dies (likely when the mirror is shattered) the demon will eat her soul.
- Miranjo came from a place where people were very well versed in magic. She moved with her.mother to another village (she was already familiar with Bosse by then). The villagers killed her mother and brutalized miranjo. Bosse came to visit them but found out what happened , and killed the whole village (children and women included).Then she took miranjo to a mage to help heal her, but the psychological trauma on miranjo was severe, she tried to commit suicide. After a while she learnt to live with Bosse ,but they wanted to change the world make it a better place and defeat the "old kings".
4)"Old Kings" or "Gods" or "Demigods" whatever didn't quite get their name , they were however not human more like godly/demonic beings were rulers before the generation of rulers that is currently present in ousama ranking world.
5)One of those gods (Cronos is his name I think) mated with a human and had 3 children: Desha, Despa and Ouken. Desha the king.of the underworld eventually becomes no #1 in ranking, he is super strong, magically and physically and we get to see him in the vault were he chooses his treasure.(Some weird shit happens there, takes too long to explain).
6)Ouken(rat eating knight) the third brother plays a very important.part in the plot, he has that gift of immortality he cannot die. But he is also cursed.Desha and Despa want to fix him.
- I'm tired of writing at this point so here's a few more things:
7.1 Daida comes back, marries Miranjo(who also gets a real body)
7.2 Bojji becomes king
7.3 Healing hits it off with Dorsche(who is an absolute beast, loses his leg).
The google app is disabled on my phone, and there's nothing when I search flags for "lens".
*edit - solved for now. Unexpire M95 flags first
Not sure how common this opinion is, I've never seen anyone discussing it.
In the past, you could simply right click an image, any image, and a "Search google for image" button would appear. Sometime during one of the past chrome updates, they removed this button and replaced it with "Search image with Google Lens."
Now, I get it: Google has this cool new technology and they need data and for people to use it. But here's the problem: Google lens (technology designed to bring information relevant to objects inside an image) and Google Reverse Image Search (technology designed to find similar images as a whole, and their sources) have two completely different purposes!
If there are images of five people and I want to know what shirt one of them i swearing, I would use Google Lens. If I want to see similar images (e.g more photos of those people, or more images of five-peopled groups), I would use Google Reverse Image Search. The two are not the same.
It's not that they "removed" the reverse image technology, but it's a lot less usable now. You need to click on 'search with google lens', scroll all the way down just to see the prompt "Didn't find what you were looking for? Retry with Google Images.", and depending on what image you searched, you could be bombarded with a ton of advertisements before you get to that button - which is finding similar images, rather than product advertisements.
Now, here's the clincher: I have absolutely no use for Google Lens, but I frequently reverse image search, usually for things like researching and to find sources. I understand the uses of Google Lens, and why someone else might use it a lot more, or why I myself might one day use it. But by forcing me to use it, you've essentially turned it into a version 2.0 of Google+. It stopped being a nifty cool feature I might use because it's relevant to me, and instead became an annoyance and impediment I completely ignore that slows me down when I'm trying to do something.
It's not like it's even remotely hard to have both services side by side; instead of adding the Google Lens button to the right-click menu, they chose to have it replace another feature, and what I could previously do en masse with one click now requires a lot more time overall when you're someone like me who uses such a feature a lot, on a consistent basis.
Remember Google+? That thing that was supposed to become Facebook's competi
