Now, thanks to Google Lens, iPhones are getting pretty close to that. Google has announced two big updates to its visual search tool, Google Lens, for iPhone users. The most important one is the fact that a new screen search feature is being introduced within both the Chrome and Google apps.

Google has announced that it's bringing a new feature to iPhone that enables users to quickly search while browsing the web or watching videos.

Google is rolling out new search gestures that allow iPhone users to highlight anything on their screen to quickly search for it. The Lens screen-searching feature is available on iOS in both the Google app and Chrome browser and provides a similar experience to Android’s Circle to Search, which isn’t supported on iPhones.
