Google Turns Image Search Into Pinterest With New “Collections” Feature

  • 8 years ago
Watch out, Pinterest, you've got new competition.
Google has now rolled out a new feature on its search engine that offers users an easy way to save to save images they find to collections they can reference at a later time.
The search giant suggests you could use the feature for saving things like hairstyle examples to show your stylist, or snowman ideas to have some winter fun.
Yep - the same sort of "inspirational" content that Pinterest users often collect and pin their many boards on the service.
In Google's case, however, the new feature is only being made available to mobile users for the time being, and is only rolling out to those in the U.S.
The feature will work across all major browsers on both iOS and Android, the company says.
In order to save images, you'll also have to be logged into your Google Account.
