- When Goggles fails to find an exact match - search for products that look similar�
Description
Search by taking a picture: point your mobile phone camera at a painting, a famous landmark, a barcode or QR code, a product, a storefront, or a popular image. If Goggles finds it in its database, it will provide you with useful information.
Goggles can read text in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Turkish, and translate it into other languages.
Goggles also works as a barcode / QR code scanner.
Features:
- Scan barcodes using Goggles to get product information
- Scan QR codes using Goggles to extract information
- Recognize famous landmarks
- Translate by taking a picture of foreign language text
- Add Contacts by scanning business cards or QR codes
- Scan text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
- Recognize paintings, books, DVDs, CDs, and just about any 2D image
- Solve Sudoku puzzles

Would be awesome if it worked in China. Google please change server. Same goes for chrome to phone.

Clever, but i have never really found a good use for it. I would remove it, but it is now included with my system :(

To uninstall, uninstall then reinstall during the install press and hold the download progress and click cancel download. Uncheck auto update. ..
