As previously announced: The lens is also coming to the Mac and Windows versions of Chrome. Once it’s available, you’ll have the option to right-click on an image, tap “Search images with Google Lens” and draw an outline around something to see if you can find more information about what’s in front of you. Lastly, if you’re someone who tends to leave purchases incomplete, you’ll see a new “Your carts” card when you open a tab. It will show you all the websites where you have open carts. The company announced this feature at I/O 2021, and now it’s rolling out in the US. Google notes some of its retail partners may even offer you a discount to complete a purchase if they notice you abandoned a cart. Is it on the pushy side? Definitely, but some people could also find it helpful.
