WhatsApp is constantly working on new features to improve user experience. Recently, it was announced that it is working on a new feature that will allow users to quickly search the internet for images they receive in group chats or private chats. This feature will help users find and share images more easily.
This feature, which is seen in WhatsApp Beta v2.24.23.13 for Android and WhatsApp Beta v24.22.10.79 for iOS, may be integrated into the final versions in the near future. So, how will this new feature work? Here are the details:
How Does the New Image Search Feature Work?
When you open an image in your WhatsApp chat, just tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen. You can then quickly search for the image on the internet by selecting the option called “Search the web” in the menu that opens. This process offers a much faster and more practical way than the visual search processes that users have done before.
Visual Search Process
When you select the search web option, WhatsApp will automatically open a web browser and load the image you selected. After this process, the application will start performing image searches on Google. Thus, it will be much easier to find the source of the image or similar ones.
Google Image Search Feature
This new feature actually takes advantage of the visual search service offered by Google. Previously, users could save the image to the gallery, then open the Google search page, upload the image and search. However, thanks to the new feature, this process has been automated and much faster. Users can search for their images online with just a few clicks.
Advantages of This Feature
- Quick Access: Users can quickly search for images and access their resources.
- Easy to Use: They can operate with a simple interface without having to take additional steps for the search process.
- Information Sharing: After finding the source of the images, users can easily share this information with their friends.
As a result, WhatsApp’s new visual search feature will enable users to use images more effectively and improve their chat experience. This feature seems to offer great convenience for both Android and iOS users.
