In reverse image search, to search a pre‑existing image, you can either select it from your phone’s camera roll (gallery) or enter a URL to that picture. If you wish to search an object that is in front of you, you can also take a picture from within the app and use that picture to search by image. This feature is especially useful when you are traveling and want to find out what stands right in front of you. You can also take picture of any product or item that you see to search similar objects from around the web. Many users also reverse image search artworks to identify the original artist of the art‑piece, so they can accurately and appropriately credit the artist when posting their work online.

For any image you select, the app constructs a channel to execute a search. The selected image, through the channel built by the app, is passed onto the search engines. When a search engine receives the picture, it will display detailed results pertaining to that picture. This app is not affiliated to any of the search engines featured in it.

The search result usually contains other partially or fully matched pictures. The search engines also report any similar images from other sources. If the picture contains an identifiable individual or landmark, the search engine will display additional informative information on that individual or landmark. To do in‑depth research, you can visit the website that the search engines find.

Ratings and reviews

As one comment said, it does do a slightly more thorough search than the straight-on browser searches. Not sure why though. Also, I've seen a couple of comments saying there's an issue with it responding with, "the image is expired or not available." I knew right away it was Yandex. Sometimes, for some reason, the web yandex search will give the same message as well. I might be wrong but I've always thought it had something to do with however Yandex idexes pages. Anyway 5*

It's quite accurate. It provides lots of options and similiar photos to recognize. It took less than one minute for me to identify the image I was searching. I am super excited that I found this application. Yes I will use it more than just this once. Especially now that e relationship scams seem to be very intrusive in internet marketing. A very helpful tool for many different identity types. I love it.

This app definitely works better than any web-based reverse image lookup. It actually returns results. However, when you do a search, it sometimes claims the image has expired and is no longer available. Considering the images are coming from my phone's storage, I can assure you they are still available. Even with that annoying error, I will continue to use the app.
