This has helped me so many times trying to figure out what things were, but the real winner here is the translate option! I've never used it before until now! I recently bought something where the instructions were in another language. Pulled up Google Lens and was able to translate it. I actually started my screen recorder, and I clicked the "listen" open to have it read. Now when I go to put this together, I'll just play the screen recording and pause it whenever I need to!

I LOVE this app!!! I've ALWAYS wanted an app, or device, that you could take a picture with, it find what you captured, & was able to tell you about it! I'm SOOO happy one finally was created!! It's been SUPER useful, informative, educational, & just very handy! Sure, it's not perfect & rarely there have been times it wasn't able to find what I captured, but I'm sure the longer it's around & the more it gets used, the better it will get!! If not, its success rate is already good enough for me!!!

Best app ever. I use it to search anything. To identify almost anything products in store or online. Even the prices of items plus where to find them and it gives info on things you lens. You can translate languages or have it read aloud the text on screen. Just improve facial recognise on normal people and it be near perfect. but This has helped me so many times trying to figure out what things were, but the real winner here is the translate option! I've never used it before until now!
