Google Lens

Visual search for the world around you

Google Lens turns your Android camera into a way to search and act on what you can see. Point it at printed text, a product, plant, animal, landmark or menu item, and Lens can connect the image with relevant Google Search information. It suits anyone who wants quick answers without typing a description or copying details by hand.

Useful tools for text and translation

Lens can recognize text in books, signs, labels and documents, then let you copy it for use elsewhere. It can also translate visible text, which is useful for menus, notices and travel signs. These functions make the app practical for students, travelers and anyone dealing with information in the physical world.

Identify places, products and objects

The app can help identify plants and animals, provide information about notable places, and surface details connected with businesses and landmarks. Its shopping features are designed for visual searches, helping you find similar products when you have seen an item but do not know its name. Results depend on the image and the information available through Google services.

Google Lens is developed by Google LLC and listed in the Tools category. It has a 4.73 out of 5 rating from more than 2.7 million reviews, with 1 billion-plus installs. The package identity for the app is com.google.ar.lens.
