Improving Google Circle to Search

Enhancing Your Android Experience

Last year, we introduced Google Circle to Search to help you easily circle, scribble or tap anything you see on your Android screen, and find information from the web without switching apps. Now we’re introducing two improvements that make Circle to Search even more helpful.

Enhanced Visual Search Results

First, we’re expanding AI Overviews to more kinds of visual search results for places, trending images, unique objects and more. Inspired by a piece of art? Circle it and see a gen AI snapshot of helpful information with links to dig deeper and learn more from the web.

Simplified Actions on Your Phone

Second, we’re making it easier for you to get things done on your phone. Circle to Search will now quickly recognize numbers, email addresses and URLs you see on your screen so you can take action with a single tap.
