Google Lens will take a significant leap in its Chrome version for desktop

Google Lens, the Google service that is responsible for scanning what can be seen on the screen, will receive important improvements in its service, and it will do so by implementing its functions through Chrome. Thanks to this, the functions that this tool enjoys can be used in a much more efficient way while using the official Google browser in its desktop version.

Being Google Chrome a service with a lot of daily users, it is important for Google to continue making improvements of this kind. The competition is strong and there are browsers like Edge or Firefox that are also making great strides in their improvements, so Chrome cannot stay behind if it does not want to lose users.

Changes for Google Lens within Chrome

As users are reporting through social media, Google Lens is getting ready to be integrated into Chrome and thus offer a wide experience thanks to capturing the content that appears on the screen. With this, users will be able to use the content they see on the screen to carry out searches on particular elements they are interested in.

Google Lens and similar applications have great popularity on smartphones, as they allow users to easily find all kinds of content. Therefore, this improvement would be another step by Google Chrome to continue advancing in desktop user experience.

Google Chrome remains on top

Google Chrome, a browser developed by the company of the same name, has been at the top for many years as the most used browser in the world, and by a wide margin compared to its competitors. However, this is mainly due to the success of Android mobile devices, where Chrome becomes the browser par excellence. But on computers, Chrome’s advantage is not as overwhelming as on mobile devices.

That is precisely why Google Chrome is constantly working on new improvements that continue to show the company’s interest in ensuring that users enjoy a high-quality service in their desktop versions. As a result, there are advancements in security that the company carries out, redesigns through Material You, or Google’s plans to design a navigation with an alternative and cookie-free model.

SpyxFamily announces one of Google’s services that you might not know you have on your mobile

SpyxFamily announces one of the Google services that perhaps you didn’t know you had on your mobile, but that, as in the case of Anya, can make your life easier

Spy x Family is the most popular anime of the moment. That has been made clear more than a couple of times. And while we wait for its first movie to arrive, as we head towards the end of its second season, the series doesn’t rest. Because everyone wants a piece of the Forger family. Even if it’s just for an ad. And the latest to grab a slice of that delicious cake has been none other than Google.

Google Japan has released two web commercials for Google Lens in collaboration with Spy x Family. In these ads, we encounter Anya, a lover of detective and espionage stories, who wants to learn everything she can about the world. That’s why the first ad is called “Anya no Odekeke,” which could be translated as “Anya’s Odekeke” — “odekeke” because Anya tends to mispronounce some words; in this case, Odekeke instead of Odekake — if we wanted to respect the original reference. In this ad, Anya goes for a walk with Loid and Yor, her adoptive parents, and the voice-over recommends using Google Lens to identify things she doesn’t know.

The second ad is called “Anya no Okaimonohen,” and fortunately, it doesn’t have any pun that needs to be translated. Here, Anya goes shopping with her best friend, Becky, trying on numerous accessories and using Google Lens to find out their prices. Something that Becky doesn’t need, but Anya does, as her parents are not wealthy.

Each of the ads runs for about fifteen seconds, animated by the same studio as the original series and includes English subtitles, probably anticipating that it would generate interest beyond the Japanese audience it’s originally aimed at. Ultimately, Spy x Family has broken many barriers as one of the most popular series of recent times. And its popularity seems to only be growing.

To watch Spy x Family, both its first and second seasons, you’ll need to head to Crunchyroll. As for the movie, you’ll still have to wait until December 22 if you’re in Japan, or sometime in 2024, pending an official release date confirmation for the rest of the world.
