Can you search Google with image?

Yes, you can search Google with a picture instead of words. This kind of search is called a “Reverse Image Search,” It lets you find other images on the web that are the same as the one you are looking for. Follow these steps to do a reverse image search on Google:

1. Go to the Google Images website (https://www.google.com/imghp).
2. Click the camera icon in the search bar.
3. You can search by either uploading an image or typing in the URL of an image.
4. Choose the picture file from your device if you want to upload a picture. If you have an image URL, paste it into the search bar and click “Search by image.”
5. Google will then show you search results related to the image, such as other websites where the image is used and images similar to the one you searched for.

Reverse image search can help you find out where an image came from, figure out what it shows, or find higher-resolution versions of an image.
