- this is no longer working, since google has fully removed reverse image search and therefore it cannot redirect to it anymore.

- Paulie Lamborghini

- B Z

- Thao Phuongg
- I'VE FOUND THIS FOR YEARS !!!
- Muttaki Islam
- Doesn't work, just doesn't. Google lens still the only option when I right-click. In other words, it literally doesn't do anything
- Bruno Azevedo
- FINALLY! AN EXTENTION THAT REALLY WORKS AND BRING BACK OLD IMAGE SEARCH! BRAZILIAN CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU, MAN!
- Laura
- It works, but it doesn't remove Lens. The extension adds "Search Google for image" as a second option on right click. It takes a second to redirect to the page. If you've already disabled the flag #enable-lens-overlay, the extension will open the page inside the Lens side window. Kinda weird, but functional! I wish it would just erase Lens from my browser though, functionally and cosmetically.
- Rich
- Doesn't work at all. A previous reviewer says it only works if you upload an image to google to search for more instances of that image. Great. Not what most of us want it for. Disappointing.
- Angel
- Nice work it's like a needed feature and google is just on it to remove it and force bullcrap lens on use Thanks these things are important
- Keegan Lynch
- From my experience, to use this feature you need to drop an image into the google images webpage. It currently (Aug-9-2024) does not redirect the expanded menu option "Search image with Google" to classic image search, however is still more functional then Google lens. Thank you! And please do update this if you can get the menu option to redirect!

- This app had one job. One job. And yet my search still went to Google Lens. ONE STAR. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. I AM REPORTING
- Thomas Tseng
- good
- Robin Ricketts
- Doesn't disable lens at all
- Kevin C
- Is working for me, despite what Nick said on 6/16. The "Enhanced Safe Browsing" warning is slightly worrying, but this extension is less than 1MB in size, unlikely for foul play. The extension is made by (admin-2) on pixatab.xyz. They make many of these niche fixes (which I really appreciate), as well as many wallpaper extensions, even though one wallpaper extension with a image picker should be all you need? They are active since 2022 at least, and last active 3 weeks ago (2024/6/07).
- Nick Ferdinand
- Not working in June of 2024; I hope the developers would be able to fix it.
- Mark NPM
- It works! (7 June 24) Thanks for saving us from the all-but-unusable, useless, truly atrocious Google Lens! 😊
- Only Black
- Works like a dream as of this review. Google's current staff keeps ruining the functionality of their own search engine.
- Sabi
- Since last Chrome update ( for me, March 2024) absolutely nothing can reverse image search easily anymore - not this extension or any other. You have to save your image, and manually go to google images and upload it to search. Utter garbage :(
