   • If you're using Chrome on your Android phone or tablet, hold your finger on the image, then tap search with Google Lens.^[1]

   Take (or download) a picture. If you have a picture on your Android, iPhone, or iPad with furniture you want to find, you can search for it using Google Lens in the Google app. First, take a picture of furniture in any setting, save one in your web browser, or capture a screenshot in an app like Instagram, Pinterest, or TikTok.

2. 2

   Open the Google app and tap Google Lens (or the camera icon). Now you'll see photos from your camera roll at the bottom.

3. 3

   Tap the photo with furniture. If the photo is a screenshot, it'll be under "Screenshots." If you downloaded the photo or took it yourself, it'll be under "All images."

   Zoom in on the furniture (optional). First, if the picture is on a website, try clicking it to see if a larger version opens. You can also right-click the picture and select Open image in new tab to isolate it from the rest of the page. Then, press Ctrl and the + key at the same time to zoom in closer.

   • This method works great to find furniture in photos from websites and apps that are hard to download from, like Pinterest and Instagram.

   Take a screenshot of the photo. The best way to do this is to take a partial screenshot so you're only capturing the furniture:

   • On a Mac, press Shift + Command + 4 at the same time, then drag the crosshair around the furniture you want to find. The screenshot will be saved to your desktop once you release the mouse button.^[2]
   • On Windows, press Windows key + Shift + S, drag the mouse around the furniture, then lift your finger. This saves the screenshot to the Screenshots folder in your Pictures folder.
   • On a Chromebook:
     • Press the Screenshot key (the camera) if you have one.
     • If not, press Shift + Ctrl + Show windows key at the same time.
     • Click Screenshot at the bottom
       .
     • Click the Partial Screenshot icon (the box with a plus)
       .
     • Click and drag the cursor to draw a box around the furniture you want to find.
     • Click Capture to take the screenshot and save it to your Downloads folder.^[3]
3. 3

   Go to https://www.google.com and click the camera icon. It's in the search bar. This opens Google Lens.

4. 4

   Drag the screenshot from your computer to the box. Alternatively, you can click upload a file to select the file from your computer. You can now browse Google Lens' reverse image search results for the best deal on the furniture you're looking for.
