Search by photo
Restriction
This feature works only if you're connected to the internet.
Visual search is a convenient way to search for information. You don’t have to enter a search query: just point your camera at an object, and the system will return information about it.
For example:
-
point the camera at an apple, and it will show its calories, protein, fat, and carbohydrates;
-
point the camera at a car, and you will learn its make, model, specifications, and configuration cost;
-
point it at a plant, and the camera will tell you its name and where it grows.
Note
Allow Yandex Browser to access your camera and files in the device settings.
-
Open Yandex Browser and click
in the Smartbox. -
Point the camera at an object or select an image from your device’s gallery (tap the round icon with a thumbnail of the last photo in the bottom right corner). Yandex Browser will mark recognized objects with dots.
-
Tap on the dot marking a recognized object, and a window with tabs will appear:
-
About the image — shows information about the recognized object;
-
Similar — shows similar items. In the Refine search field, you can make the query more specific to expand the results.
