You don’t have to wait for Circle to Search to roll out, you can enable the feature right now on Pixel phones.
Google will be bringing Circle to Search to the Pixel 8 series on January 31.
You can start using the feature right now if you follow a few steps.
Other Pixel phones can also use the feature right now, but it requires more steps.
During Galaxy Unpacked, a new Circle to Search (CTS) feature was announced for the Galaxy S24 series. Google said it plans to bring the feature to the Pixel 8 series on January 31, 2024, but you can actually start using it today if you follow a few steps. And it works on older Pixel phones, too.
Circle to Search is a function that allows you to search for anything on your screen by circling, highlighting, tapping, or scribbling over the subject. All the user has to do is long press on the home button or gesture navigation handle, circle the text or image, and Google Lens will perform a search without you having to leave the app you’re on.
