- Google has been working to bring Lens to Chrome, complete with Circle to Search functionality.
- That feature set could extend to image-based translations.
- While not yet active, it’s possible to force Chrome to display this translation interface already.
Circle to Search is already very handy on our phones, and Google’s been working hard to expand where we’re able to access it, recently bringing early support to Chrome betas by way of Lens. But what exactly is that going to look like in our browser? Will it be as feature rich as we’ve come to expect from Android? That’s feeling more and more like it could be the case, with the arrival of some new evidence showing off the tool’s translation capability.
Pull up Circle to Search on your phone right now, and you’ll see a Google Translate icon in the corner, ready to analyze what’s on your screen. That’s especially useful when we’re not talking about text-based translation, and instead want to work with an image.
