Ratings and reviews

I love Google Lens. It answers a lot of questions and is done merely by taking a photograph of the subject matter in question. This particular instance is of me in query of text on a tube of Malin+Goerz botanical conditioner. I wondered about the exact wording; remove easily hair without leaving any residue. I've yet to discover the actual meaning, sequence, or dialect of these words and the arrangement of them, but I had the option of having them read aloud to me, which did verify authenticity.

Use this a lot. Great invention. It's complete w pricing and availability. It's also free n I'm satisfied w/o an upgrade. Not monetizing so not paying... Am impressed w how well it works. It's an online Webster's Dictionary+. Now inclusive of slang.. no longer considered slang. And again, it's Free. I'm really very happy w the basic. We've been able to identify what grows, where, when, how. I didn't give 5 since it means perfection to me. It's not perfect.. but it's great.

Love this app!!! You can either take a photo or import one. It then quickly identifies it name and even gives you links to sources to buy it. You can also use it to give you an idea of the value of something you may want to sell. I also use it to identify plants, and anything related. Can identify insects, birds etc. I really need to put this app on the homepage because the number of possibilities with its use seems almost endless. It also gets better with time.
