Earlier this year, Google Lens received 500 million downloads in the Play Store. For an app that is not pre-installed on many devices, this milestone does show how useful it really is, and it only gets better thanks to a new update that makes it easier to select the images you want to analyze.
The icons to the left of the shutter button no longer direct you to the file manager of your device. Instead, as seen by 9to5Google, it will now open a new gallery view giving you quick access to your screenshots – the images you most likely want to import.
As you can see above, the new gallery view places the eight most recent screenshots at the top and the rest of the photos on your phone.
Since Google Lens is being updated by the Google app, you need to be sure you have version 12.8 or higher to see this new feature – you can get the latest version of APK Mirror.
