Search by Image by Armin Sebastian
Review by hackerb9
Rated 5 out of 5
by hackerb9, a year agoMany people have already mentioned how great the reverse image search is, but I want to point out that this extension also has a very powerful "OPEN IMAGE" option. Open Image, lets one see and save images that don't have IMG URLs.
For example, sites like artsandculture.google.com will send very high resolution images as tiled PNGs and use JavaScript to stitch them together. Each tile is just a data blob so all the other extensions I tried (Download All Images, Save Images, etc) failed to even detect that the image exists, much less let me save it.
I don't know how Search by Image is able to find images that other extensions miss, but I hope that eventually the author (Armin Sebastian @dessant) will create an extension that can download all such images from a page in a single click.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13302143, a month agoUsed it a lot to identify the original authors of reposted art.
Only recently I found out about variety of features, especially the "capture" function which enables searching from website that disable the right click menu like instagram and pinterest which has been great.
Unfortunately it seems it doesn't work with Google's engine anymore. It's a shame google gave up on the old one for Lens. - Rated 5 out of 5by Vahid, a month ago
