Google Lens is an application introduced by Google in Google I/O 2017.[1] It is designed for scanning things and producing a search for it using Google Assistant.[2] For example, if you scan a Wi-Fi barcode, the app will automatically connect to the Wi-Fi source that has been scanned, or if you scan a restaurant, it will instantly pop up reviews and information about the restaurant.[3] It is also integrated with the Google Photos app.[4] The app is much like Google Goggles,[5] a previous app that functioned the same way except less advanced as Google Lens.[6] Google has said that the app will be coming in 2017, but has no confirmed date.[7]
