Google introduces "Circle to Search" in Chrome for PC

Google has introduced a new Circle to Search feature in its Chrome web browser for computers, making searching the web even more intuitive and convenient.

Here's What We Know

This updated feature, which allows users to initiate a search by simply circling content on the screen, promises to make it easier to find information on web pages.

The innovative "Circle to Search" option has already gained popularity among users of some Pixel and Galaxy smartphones, and now it will be available for the Google Chrome browser on PC.

The update also includes a new interface for the Google Lens feature, which allows you to find more information about text and images on web pages.

The current Google Lens feature in Chrome works very differently. Currently, users have to make several clicks to take a screenshot, and the interface is not intuitive.

Despite the new animation introduced with the update, the option still doesn't allow you to actually "circle" or draw a freeform shape to highlight content on the desktop. Instead, cursor movements result in a rectangular selection.
