Circle to Search is learning to handle your full-screen queries (APK teardown)
- Circle to Search appears to be preparing a change to its default behavior.
- Rather than waiting for you to select something, you’d start with a thumbnail of the entire display.
- While this isn’t live just yet, Google has already prepared an introductory screen.
Circle to Search is a great Android feature that’s almost deceptively simple-sounding. It’s the sort of thing you’re tempted to dismiss as just a reimaging of Google Lens — and then you go and start using it, and discover how powerful and useful it can really be. Today we’re checking out one way Google could be working to add some flexibility to the tool, letting you easily search with your entire screen.
Right now, when you pull up Circle to Search, you’re basically starting with a blank slate — the tool waits patiently for you to select something on the screen. If you go ahead and highlight some text, it will appear in the Search bar, but if you circle an image, instead, you’ll see a thumbnail there. From here you can add more terms to further narrow down your search.
