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 just discovered that this app has the "translate" feature, too! I found some random fruit on the ground in an alley.. had no idea what it was and this app identified it immediately. I love it so far. Another update, I had some weird fungus growing in one of my fruit trees. I was able to identify it immediately with this app. I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Update: Still an excellent app, that I use almost daily. My only complaint is being asked to review the app every single time I use it..

Hasn't been very good at steadying the phototaking, unless flash is on, but that uuuuusually "flash-floods" the photo.. meaning it ends up being too bright to accurately see, in detail, what it is that you're trying to take a picture of. And in my opinion, the app works best when it can see your picture in better detail, so as to further define what it's supposed to be helping you search. And neither trade-off does the trick very well, atm. But! New update for the first issue, so we'll see! 🤞🏻
