Google Lens is getting a new feature that will automatically save images you search using the shortcut in the Google app.

Google Lens, the app that helps you complete homework, identify landmarks and visualise STEM models is getting a new useful update that will automatically save images you analyse so you can view them later.

Currently, the shutter button in the Google Lens app does not store the picture you take on your device instead, it is sent to Google for analysis, after which it disappears. This means users had to click a photo using the camera app and send it to the app for analysis.

However, the tech giant is now rolling out a new feature for Google Lens that automatically saves images when you search for information about an image using the Lens shortcut in the Google app. However, photos from other apps like Google Photos or the new Circle to Search feature won’t be saved.

Those who want to access their visual search history can visit myactivity.google.com to see all images search on Google Lens. The page also lets you download images so you can use them later. One thing to note here is that this setting is disabled by default and users will haveto manually enable it.

To do so, head over to the aforementioned webpage, click on ‘Data & Privacy’, tap on ‘Web & App Activity’ and enable the ‘Include Visual Search History’ toggle.

The new functionality is currently being rolled out with Google saying it will be available to everyone in the coming weeks. The tech giant says it will also notify users about the new feature with a pop-up when its available on their device.
