Google Will Now Help With Your Holiday Shopping
Track Price Drops on Chrome for Android
Starting with the first one, Google is adding a new price-drop tracker to the open-tabs grid on Chrome for Android. The tracker will show the current price alongside the original price of an item on top of a tab in the open-tabs grid of the browser.
With this, you can see the discounted price of an item right away, so that you can keep track of the price change on the Chrome app. You can check out the screenshot attached below to see the feature in action.
Search with Snapshot from the Address Bar
The search with snapshot option will allow you to search for items on online websites with an image taken with Google Lens from offline stores.

Furthermore, the company has confirmed that the feature will roll out for Chrome’s desktop version as well. You will be soon able to use an image to make a search in Chrome for Windows and Mac with the new “Search images with Google Lens” option.
