Images for desktop 89806

Image search — this is a chance to search by term and see images related to the one you desktop wallpapers entered. Most search engines offer it, it's all great. But what if there is an image in the family and you want to check its origin? And also find similar photos? This is a reverse image search.

Google's reverse image search is very desktop friendly. Go to the images.Google.Com tab (loads in a new window), click the camera icon, and paste the image address (url) of the image you saw on the web, upload the image from the hdd or drag and drop the image from any window.

But what should you do if you're using a computer and want to do a reverse image search? There are options.

Google image search on portable devices

Google has built a reverse photo search function into players and gadgets, albeit in limited quantities.When opening images.Google.Com on an iphone device, the hardware icon should not appear in the search bar. To complete your education, you need to download the desktop version on your mobile device. It works in safari but works best in chrome browser app (ios (opens in future window) or android (opens in current window)).

In safari, tap the aa icon in the top left corner and select query desktop site. In chrome, tap the three-dot menu, scroll down the pop-up menu, and select request desktop. In both browsers, the desktop version of google images will load and the camera icon will appear. It is then possible to upload photos from the camera roll.

Depending on your mobile chrome also supports a reverse image search workaround. If you see an image through the browser that you can find, hold your finger there until a pop-up menu starts; select "search this image on google" at the bottom. Note. All this will not work in google addon or other browsers (including safari). This only works in chrome.

If for some reason the above fails, you can also choose to open the image in a fresh tab. Then copy the url, go back to images.Google.Com and then paste the url. With all methods, reverse different image search positions then appear; however, you'll have to click the "other sizes" option at the top to see only images. You'll see options to narrow down your query, such as find animated gifs, clip art equivalents, or search by the color scheme used in the primary image.

Google lens can also provide an inverted image. Search option. The lens has its own interesting application (opens in this window), but has also become part of the google application, and add-ons for google photos and google assistant. However, by the way, lens will be more able to help you with tasks like very fast translation, identifying things, or finding products to purchase than searching for the original image.

Bing visual search for mobile devices

Another major search engine, microsoft's bing, also does a reverse image search, but calls it "visual search". Click the bing camera icon in any mobile browser or in the bing app. A pop-up window indicates that you need to set bing to your camera to be searched by image; accept or reject with a single tap.

On the next screen, start the "browse" button in the left corner. A pop-up menu will allow you to take a photo, view the image library, or view third-party services. Click "browse", the best way to discover photos stored in third party services such as icloud drive, google drive and dropbox.

Latest versions by bing (ios(opens in new window) and android( is loaded in the current window)) provides an opportunity to takecreate multiple photos and find it without wasting time. You can upload a photo from your camera roll, scan a qr password, or point your camera at word or math problems (scammers!).

Third-party image search engines

There are several search engines required to select only images, but not all of the list are online with the future computer or default browsers.
