Nearly useless ... by anonymat least it scans the item but turn the matching is waaaaaaay off! Even after selecting the category of 'toys' it saan't anke to recognize a Steiff elevant. HTC One 4g (4.4.2, 5.5): v1.9.4 2/5
Not much use by anonymOnly well-known artwork or images with text in them were recognized, otherwise it did not know what it was looking at. Pointed at a cordless drill all it did was read the text on the label and say "Ryobi 14.4." Pointed at a pair pliers it says unknown. Tried pointing it at a half dozen other common objects, results are only "unknown." Uninstalled. 1/5
Works sometimes by anonymSometimes it works well and sometimes it doesn't recognize what I want it to. I still like it. 4/5
Not matches found!!!? by anonymPretty much this app only recognize text and not even that is accurate, sorry Google but you just waste my time with this app! I will uninstall. Bye 1/5
Nice and smooth by anonymReally many things were corectly detected. Reminds me of Eden of the West. 5/5
by anonymI have scanned 50+ things with this app and have gotten 0 results! Wtf? I have used a desktop and done a Google image search on the same images and gotten wonderful results. This app is crap at best. 1/5
by anonymTotally sucks how it gets 4 stars I dint know it doesn't scan and recognizes nothing I even tried a coke can horrible app 1/5
Was OK...... by anonymNow a joke. It identifies nothing....I guess funding for this project has stopped. 1/5
A severe disappointment from Google by anonymI heard such good reviews of Goggles, but none were true. Its like Google pulled an AOL with how deplorable this app is. It can't pick out the most common items. Its OCR and translation capabilities are atrocious. When it attempts to check pictures I download from Facebook, it can't even come with results for them. Good job Google! You've made one of the worst apps available in Google Play. 1/5
Good idea, but this app is worthless by anonymNothing I took a picture of could it identify. Tried everything from kwikset keys to stamps. Yet things like text on pictures it does searches for when I don't want it to with out me even loading the app. I deleted it when I found out it was chewing up 30% of my CPU cycles. 1/5
Crap by anonymIt's no where near as good as it used to be. I used to love This app but now it doesn't even bring anything near similar to what you're looking for in the similar section 1/5
No just No by anonymit freaks out and won't focus at all and on top of the you can't crop the picture like you could before, it messes up and just takes the picture 1/5
If it's bugged say so Google! by anonymScan bar doesn't complete full sweep of image and doesn't recognise clear images that it definitely should do (such as an xbox controller or a Ford badge). Those that say it works are not using this version (dl'd 15th Jan '15) or this "bug" doesn't effect their device (mine is a samsung galaxy S4 mini). First time I bothered commenting because so disappointed - I had this app on another phone over three years ago and it not only worked it had a much less clunky interface for selecting pics. Sort it out! 1/5
Good idea, but.... by anonymI suppose the app does work, but it is horrible to use on my moto g. It thinks the phone is 90° to what it really is and there is horrible distortion and cropping of the view displayed! 1/5
Google Goggles by anonymIt fails to recognize simple objects. Face recognition fails almost immediately, less than one second. What happened with the HTC ONE M7 version of this application ? It used to work next to perfect. 1/5
Bad update by anonymThr las update lacking realtime mode. Not recognized nothing even logos! What's wrong guys? Please take back the good goggles app! 1/5
Google Camera by anonymI love this app I took pictures of My favorite T-shirt that brought usrd and found them on Googles and found out how much they COST brandnew.l really hope they make this Camera to reconize objects and Animal that have no print or advertizement on it then it would be a TEN STAR APP 5/5
by anonymI want Google Team To put more effort into it so that search circle goes even bigger. 5/5
Use at own risk. by anonymPeople will appear in their true forms! The world is not what it seems! You have to believe me! 3/5
Great idea of it worked by anonymIt only scans a Qtr of the object and then says no objects found. Well no da that's because you didn't scan the picture all the way. Please fix the bug. 2/5
Used to be great, not anymore by anonymThis used to be such a great app. A great tool for comparison or identification. But not anymore. The app does not fully scan and you can try to scan very common items and still not get anything. I miss the way it used to work. Way to drop the ball, Google. 1/5
No object recognized by anonymNo matter what I take a photo of, I get an error message stating "no object recognized" which means this app won't search for anything. The scanning bar that indicates the photo is being analyzed doesn't go more than a quarter across the screen before the error pops up, which means the app is missing the in-focus objects. Complete and utter garbage! This USED to be a useful app! 1/5
Goggles by anonymI am not sure what the other negative reviews are about. I have a note 3 and this thing works flawlessly every time. I have even scanned very obscure articles and it has given me authors and publishing dates. I have scanned pictures and it has shown me where they came from on the internet if they did. I have scanned logos and it has never failed to tell me who the company is. I am truly sorry for those for whom it did not work. I recommend 100% to give it a try. 5/5
Goggles puts an end to searching by anonymI love google goggles because if I see something in a picture, and I want to buy it, it easily helps me to find it, which eliminates hours of searching online.. Its not always 100% accurate but its close! 5/5
Usless utter usless by anonymOnly scans a portion of the image and jumps to its own conclusion and if its wrong you can't just carry on to scan image further you have to start again and guess what you get the same results, love the idea hate the execution 1/5
Sucks by anonymCan't find anything I take a pic of except the obvious stuff... Take a pic of a bug, can't tell you what it is. take a picture of a bug on a wall it brings up pictures of walls..... 1/5
Cool idea by anonymIt was a really cool idea but the fact that Google glasses never actually works and seems to have more issues than anything is a large problem if one day this application does ever actually work as needed I have intended I will download and review again 3/5
Doesnt match by anonymIt doesnt recognize anything this app is useless and a waste of space. Make it work and you might get better ratings! 1/5
Hey! Google by anonymHey! Google I don't know if you take feedback but why don't you add feature for facial recognition for celebrities.I know that you cannot add it for the whole world it can be a security glitch. Thumbs Up! 5/5
Does not work! by anonymHow this app has a 4.1 rating is beyond comprehension. It does not work. Tap on picture, app comes up, starts to scan and it suddenly stops. 1/5
Not so good yet by anonymFirst 5 items I tried could not be recognized. I give them credit for trying. 2/5
Coolest App Ever! Still not perfect Though! by anonymYou know it's really cool app it's not perfect.. But love using it when I feel like it. I wish to use it when I am in front of some monument and see if it will really work and show me a pictures based on it. 4/5
Needs fixes by anonymFour of five items were not correctly identified. Try to use it for facial recognition of a celebrity image. scan stops almost at the beginning of the image. 2/5
Fails completely. by anonymDoesn't want to snap a picture any more, no matter how I tap on the camera icon. (App no longer usable this way.) 1/5
OCR function does not work anymore... by anonymDoes not making OCR anymore. It is showing tha isscanning the picture but tells me that nothing is found. Before the update it ould find text in the picture. Please fix it. For me this isan important future of this application. 2/5
Doesn't do what you'd expect. by anonymMatched an antique doll... with painted toenails. What??? Basically looks like it matches image for image. Matching colors by quantity? Can't "recognize" a turd from chocolate cream pie. All of this...with a tasty dose of Google GPS data collected. Should be better by now, right? Nah. Just use it and the can collect your data and interests by sifting photos for them. 2/5
by anonymNo matter what you take a pic of it says no match found. I took pictures of a variety of object and nothing returned any results 1/5
Wtf? by anonymAre you serious? This app is Cr_app. I'm trying to find out a piece of jewelery and it has no matches. Nothing is recognized with this app. Don't waste your time with this 1/5
Not scanning properly by anonymThere is a potential bug in the latest version of goggle. If you scan a page full of writing it will height or find a few words or letter. Previously I never faces that issue please fix it asap or people will start uninstalling goggle because it is not doing the basis things for which goggle was developed. 2/5
Looong issue with galaxy note 2,3,4 by anonymI am facing long issue since long time. Its custom frame is not taking pictures according to the selwcted frame area but it showes the complete area visible after taking picture and search the full image instead of a selected area. 1/5
