Only available on mobile, huh?
Reminds me of Google Translate on photos/images, which has been available for years on mobile but never on web.
I hope this doesn't become a trend.

- xxpor 6y agoThe reverse is frustrating also: no reverse image search on mobile.
- snazz 6y agoAt least it's trivial to hit the "open desktop site" button, although the page isn't very comfortable to use on iOS.
- Keyframe 6y agoHold your finger on the image in chrome and in the pop-up menu there's 'search with google lens'. On https://www.google.com/imghp?hl=EN https://www.google.com/imghp?hl=EN if you request a desktop site there's an upload capability as well...
- Cthulhu_ 6y agoBut you are aware that the vast majority of users would be on mobile, right? I mean I recognize that Translate on images in the browser - especially if combined with Youtube and Image Search - would be incredibly powerful, but it just wouldn't be as much a thing on desktop. I'm pretty sure (don't quote me on this) that there's a bit of processing done on the device (character recognition / isolation) before sending it off to Translate as well; not sure how well that would port to a browser. Should work just fine with wasm though.
