How to use the new Circle to Search tool


There’s a new, handy way to search on an Android — draw a circle.

You can drag a line across it (handy for text), you can scribble on top of it, or you can just tap it and let Android’s AI smarts try to figure out what you’re trying to select. The real beauty of it is the way it works on top of other apps: an Instagram caption, for example, or a webpage image or artwork on a podcast. Whether the app in question lets you select text or save images, it doesn’t matter.
