Google Chrome Brings New Innovations For iPhone Users: Lens, Drive, Shopping & More

Lets have a look at the new Chrome iOS features in detail!

Use Google Lens to Search with Text and Images

  • Google Lens searches in Chrome on iOS now allow you to blend text and photos.
  • You could just use an image to search before, but now you can add text to your search to get more focused results.
  • Inquiring about what you see or adding specifics like colors or features to narrow down searches are two examples.
  • An AI Overview that gathers pertinent web content may be included in some searches.
  • By tapping the camera symbol in the Google Search bar, you may access Google Lens.

Save Pictures and Files to Make Room

  • To preserve space on your device, you can save files and photos from Chrome on iOS to Google Drive or Google Photos.
  • Tap the Google Drive option to save a file to Drive, where it will be kept in the “Saved from Chrome” folder.
  • Long-pressing an image and choosing “Save in Google Photos” from the menu will save it to Photos.
  • You must be logged into a Google account in order to use this feature.

Shopping Tips to Get Better Offers

  • To assist you in finding better deals, Chrome on iOS now displays Shopping Insights for goods.
  • A “Good Deal Now” alert with information on price history, tracking, and purchase choices shows up in the address bar if it is available.
  • The U.S. is where the function is now being rolled out, and it will eventually spread to other areas.
  • To utilize this function, you must be logged into Chrome and have the “Make Searches and Browsing Better” setting enabled.

View Address Maps with a Single Tap

  • You can view a mini-map of an address in Chrome on iOS without having to navigate to Google Maps.
  • In Chrome, the mini-map appears when you tap an address that is underlined on a webpage.
  • In the upcoming months, this feature—which is currently undergoing testing—will be progressively implemented worldwide.
