I’ve been using it for a while now on my Pixel and I gotta say it’s actually really useful, you can copy text from anywhere, even apps that normally won’t let you (both intentionally blocked and unintentionally) copy/select text

And the easy “translate what’s on my screen” functionality has been really good on Lemmy when I come across the random German memes lmao

The actual search function also comes in handy when I want to reverse search an image from an app, but the app won’t let me save it. It’s nice to skip a step or 2.

That being said, since it’s actually good I now expect it to be nerfed and/or abandoned in about 6 months

    It’s really helpful as someone trying to learn a language since I can just use it to select words I don’t know and immediately translate them or look them up in a dictionary.
