Ratings and reviews

Google Lens is wonderful and so very easy to use. Not only does it furnish you with prices, but it also gives you many other samples and options to learn about. My biggest issue is remembering to use it, too funny. One more learning curve but well worth it. AI is remarkable. I urge everyone to try it. Download the app, I guarantee you will love it. Shelley

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!!!

One of my all-time favorite apps. It just works. I especially enjoy leaving my nephew in awe-stricken by having itb"magically" solve his math equation problems just by pointing a camera at nearly every sin isgle type of equation. Not to mention the overhead translation in real time. My unilingual grandmother's favorite function. Me personally, I enjoy it when I find the names & locations of places I'd forgotten about from very old photos but have been dying to go!
