Google’s Circle to Search feature was introduced in the Galaxy S24 series and Google’s latest Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones. This feature makes searching for information about a particular picture, text, or video easy and super fun as users just need to draw a circle with their finger around an image, text, or video, and within seconds you will get all the info related to that circled part without switching apps.

Google yesterday rolled out the March 2024 Pixel feature drop to Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro smartphones. This latest update also brings the new Circle to Search feature to these two smartphones.
