Google's Circle to Search is now your barcode and QR code scanner


Scan a barcode or QR code, and it'll instantly show you what you need to know.

The AI visual lookup scans QR codes and barcodes through the viewfinder and shows a chip with a direct website link. Google’s Circle to Search now scans barcodes and QR codes automatically, making it a lot more useful and quicker for getting the info you need. To try it out, just visit a webpage or open an image with a QR code, then long-press the home button or navigation handle to activate Circle to Search.
