Ratings and reviews

While ilLENS doesn't always show you the correct item, it came in very handy today. We thought someone had broken into our place because there was a black rubber thing on the floor that wasn't there prior to us going out. We'll on the off chance that LEms would know what it was, I took a picture, and it came up with what it was... a piece to a car remote. We looked at our remotes and low and behold, one of our remotes had fallen apart! Thanks LENS!!

Such a great app and tool. You can take pictures of things with foreign languages and then translate them later. Super helpful and useful. I use it all the time traveling. The only change I would suggest would be to be able to clear the screen of all the tools so you can have an uncluttered translated picture to take a screenshot or share the translated picture with other people or yourself.

I like Google Lens. I can take pictures and search things up, using the image that I took on Google Lens. I also like that it has a homework feature that helps you get done your assignments. And I absolutely love that they have a translate feature which I think is very useful in many situations. In addition to that, I believe that there are a few things that they should add to make the app more versatile. Microsoft lens has features for business cards , and documents - just to name a few.
