More about the Google Lens app:

With the Google Lens app, you can scan and translate text, easily letting you understand any languages around you. You can also use the camera to identify plants and animals that you encounter, saving their names for later research. By using the camera and pointing at particular places or buildings, you can get a detailed history of everything that Google knows about the location. If you see someone wearing an outfit you love, you can use the Google Lens camera to snap a photo of their clothes. Google will then find you the items online and tell you how much they cost.
