Reverse Image Search for Android
I've had this app on every device I own for almost a year now. It is SO easy to use & it WORKS!! I am baffled by those that say it doesn't work or rate it poorly bc they either don't know how to use it ((read more about it and then rate ppl!)) Or its not what they're looking for in an app.. don't rate it poorly bc you didn't download the correct app for your needs. .just delete it..
all this does is a search like "visually similar images" in any google image search on pc. that is, if you search a portrait of margo robbie you will get portraits of blond haired women not actual reverse image search this is most like tinyeye not google image search
Works well, only you need to go to your photos and share the photo you want directly to the app because it doesn't have its own launch-able Interface. A lot of people dont like this but it works so I like it.
Works great!! It took a minute for me to figure it out (You have to go to your gallery, and hit 'Share', the app should be one of the options) But it works just like it would online!
This apps is not exactly like an apps. It's more like an add-on to your phone, which I like it, because it could minimize my phone memory. But really though, Mr. Halverson, you should inform people...
As someone else noted, to use this app you have to long press your photo and then hit the share button and it's an option there. There isn't an app icon. Works pretty good too!
I downloaded this but couldn't find the icon, read through other comments and figured out how to use it. Took my photo to google then immediately forced closed. Does it everytime. This app is useless to me if it just constantly force closes.
Go to your gallery, chose the photo you wanna reverse image search, hit your "share" button, and it should pop up on your selection of choices, your welcome :)
All you need to do is "share" an image from any gallery app to this, and it will search Google. READ THE DESCRIPTION PEOPLE!
Works fine and for all those who did not know how to use this app, click in the share button, a lot of items will appear where you can share your picture, click on search image on google and it will search your image via your browser.
Ok. . . it's not rocket science to figure out how to upload the photo to Google Image search. But, I'm looking for a common, everyday person. Not Liam Payne or a guy w/one eye. Even tried uploading pictures that exist on my personal Facebook. Couldn't identify them. So. . . this is not exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks anyways.
For those people who cannot find installed app, there is no icon or widget. Open your gallery, pick the photo you want to search, hit the "share" symbol and you will find the image search icon there. Uses Google Chrome to find your image and finds multiple images, multiple sizes (if available).

You can ignore the 1-star reviews. The app is accessible if you choose to share a photo. An option to search on Google appears. There are no options to tweak it in any way (like changing the search engine or cropping the picture), but it does what it was meant for perfectly well.
A lot of people don't get how to use it, on a desktop we'd simply drag an image to a Google search bar. After installing this tiny app, simply select the image you want Google to search for, and select the share option. Look for the new option "Search image on Google"

You have to click share to access the app. Then when I search an image that I know for a fact is on several sites, it doesn't pull up anything.
It only shows up as an option to search when you go to the gallery and select "share." Them it uploads the picture to Google Image search. The Google Image Search App is much better and more user-friendly
Here's what you do. If you download this, it will not show up in your apps. However, that doesn't mean it can't be used. To use it, open your gallery. Select your image of choice. You can use it in a search by clicking the picture icon above your picture or by clicking the share icon, then selecting "Search with google images"

People giving this a bad review as they "can't find the app" really must spend just READ the bloody description! Open an image in your gallery or wherever You store your pictures or photos, click share and you'll have the usual option to share with Facebook etc AND to Search with this app! It really couldn't be easier?!
As people already said just ignore the one star reviews, they don't have any clue to use it. And btw it works perfectly for me! Thanks Dev.
I tried trice to install this app and nothing showed up in the apps, not even play store recognized it. Not sure what went wrong, but it needs to be fixed.
You install, then select a picture and the option to search via google appears ... yay!
The program is there when you go into gallery and pick to share. I had a symbol on my phone I didn't know. Screen captured and cropped and it found it perfect
Your are great, straight, simple no confusing fancy settings and UI, just remember to have internet connection turn on, then just open the gallery, click on the picture you want to search, then the share button, you will see the icon of this app. Click the app icon to search.
You have to find the picture in your gallery and click share and select the reverse image search app. The developers should have made this more clear in the app description.
Ignore reviews that say they can't find the app. This adds an option to the share menu, so you can do image searches pretty much anywhere an image is displayed. Extremely useful.
Hey so listen. I was originally on the fence about downloading this app because of all the one star reviews but I am glad I listened to the 5 star reviews on here. For me the app downloaded really fast and there seems to be no app right? Well you simply go to your gallery and look for the downloaded pic you want to search and go to your share icon. There is now one called ''Image Search by Google''. Share it and you will be reverse image searching it on Google. Works fantastic
No icons or app to open just go to your own album/gallery and click share and look for image search on Google and hey presto
For all those who havr trouble finding the app please click on the image you want search from gallery and press share. You'll find this app in the list follows!
It disappears after install, leaving no standalone app to use, but acts as a plug in to your browser. The dev. would have done well to at least have a page that explains how to use. Download, view the photo you want to search, click the share icon, the click "search image on". It takes a few seconds, but then pulls up your image on Google Image search.
All you need to do is "share" an image from any gallery app to this, and it will search Google. I only wish there were some settings I could configure; sometimes I'd rather search Bing for an image if Google can't find it, but alas, this app is Google-only.
For those who don't understand, take your picture or screenshot, and then hit the share button in the gallery, find reverse image search and it'll do it. It can be a little confusing but it's really handy.
Go to your gallery, chose the photo you wanna reverse image search, hit your "share" button, and it should pop up on your selection of choices, your welcome :)
This app does everything I wanted and no more. If there's a better reverse image search out there for Android, I sure haven't found it, and I've looked. HOWEVER, it works with Chrome but not with Firefox.
It's just nothing in the first look. But you have to click the share button from your album to see the extra option of google search. Could've been great if they made a small visible manual for this.
Disgusting app..... no trace after installation at all...... it's fake
This app lets you use Google reverse image search and it has been tested. It will let you share a picture that is in your gallery and then do a Google reverse image search for it just like the reverse image search on your desktop for laptop. Excellent. This will not put an icon in your app drawer however. To uninstall, you must go to Settings and then apps. But why would you want to do that?

To everyone that keeps pointing out where to find the app, well done, we are very happy for you, but the app still doesn't do what it says. Have u ever tried a reverse search from Google on your PC..? This app does NOT do that. It just does a regular image search on what IT THINKS your picture is about.
