Circle to Search can quickly figure out if an image is fake.

The Android feature now includes a new “About this image” tab that can instantly pull up an image’s metadata, source, and whether a Google AI watermark is present to help determine its legitimacy.

It could be helpful against weird out-of-context political images on social media. The feature is rolling out now on the latest Pixel and Samsung phones, tablets, and foldables.

“About this image” is also available in the Google Lens app, but Circle to Search is much faster.
