Have you ever tried to search for instructions on how to take care of a plant, but you just couldn’t quite find all the right words to perform a search that returned the answers you were looking for? You’re not the only one.
Thankfully, Google are looking to provide users with more ways to search successfully and find the answers they’re looking for with a new search option dubbed ‘Multisearch’, which enables users to combine visual and text parameters to expand their search results.
Powered by Google’s evolving AI and ML tools, searchers will now be able to add additional parameters to search queries.
As said by Google:
“With multisearch, you can ask a question about an object in front of you or refine your search by color, brand or a visual attribute.”
How to Use Multisearch
To get started with Multisearch,
- Open up the Google app on your smartphone (either Android or iOS)
- Tap the Lens camera icon
- Search for one of your screenshots or snap a photo of something around you
- Swipe up and tap the “+ Add to your search” button to add text
