However, you can start the reverse search on your iPhone from the Google images desktop page. The reverse Google image search – as mentioned above – is not possible on the mobile Google page. After that you’ll get a guess of who the man in the picture might be and furhter down results on which pages the picture can be found. Select “Search Google for This Image” to start the reverse search. Then tap and hold the picture until more functions appear. To start the reverse image search in the Google Chrome app, first browse the internet for a photo. However you can only use the reverse Google image search for images that can be found online and not for pictures from your Photos app. If you don’t want to pay for an app, Google Chrome might be a good alternative. Your preferred browser will open and show a guess, who the person on the image could be. If you find a picture you want to know more about simply tap on the button in order to initiate the reverse image search. You will now find a button called “Search Image” in the lower icon bar.

Optionally you can drag and drop this option to the top, so that it is easier and faster to access next time. Then turn on the option “Search Image” by flicking the switch next to it. Move all the way to the right in the lower icon bar and click “More”. Open up the Photos app and tap the Share icon in the left bottom corner. The starting point of this trick is a photo in your library you want to know more about. There you can adjust the options “Preferred browser” and “Preferred search engine” to your liking. Otherwise you can open the app and go to the “Setting”. If you are using Safari and Google, you don’t have to change anything.
