Reverse search is indeed a great feature to find the source of an image or to know what it’s exactly about from the web. In this article, we bring you a quick guide on how to search on Google using images or videos.
Search On Google Using Image
On Phone

You’ll now be automatically directed to the search results page where you can see results related to the uploaded picture. You can also check other visually similar images through the given option.
Search on Google Using Video
Currently, Google or any other search engine doesn’t offer the ability to reverse search using videos. However, there’s a workaround that you can follow to get the details of a particular video.
To reverse search a video, capture a few screenshots of different frames in the video. Now, use those screenshots one by one at images.google.com, and you’ll get the possible source and details of the clip. Indeed, this isn’t a full-proof trick, but it does work well at times.
