Google Chrome for iOS introduces simultaneous image and text search

Google Chrome for iOS has been upgraded with several new features that enhance user experience. One of the most notable additions is the simultaneous image and text search capability using Google Lens, which allows users to input both a picture and words to refine their searches. This enhancement is particularly useful, enabling users to find specific items more efficiently, such as when searching for a shirt by uploading an image of a design alongside textual descriptions like color preferences. Additionally, Chrome for iOS now supports saving files and images directly to Google Photos and Google Drive, alleviating storage concerns for users who may have limited iCloud capacity. Furthermore, the new Shopping Insights feature provides users with notifications for deals and price tracking via the address bar, enhancing the online shopping experience. These developments come as Apple launches its Visual Intelligence search, aiming to stay competitive in the mobile browser market.
