The Windows Photos app is a simple tool for viewing and managing images. But an upcoming update to Windows 11 includes a new feature that could be very useful for your business: Visual Search with Bing.
With the update, you’ll be able to do a reverse image search straight from the app, which will show you similar images and related information.
How can this benefit you?
Let’s say you’re looking at a photo and want to know more about a product, place, or person in the image. A reverse image search is a faster way to get the information you need.
Teachers might want to find more resources to use in lessons or let students delve deeper into a subject.
It’s an excellent tool for eCommerce store owners. You can use it to find out who else is selling a product, compare pricing, or track down new suppliers.
Marketing teams can also use it to quickly find similar visuals in campaigns or ensure images aren’t being used elsewhere. It also helps you check an image’s origin to ensure you have permission to use it.
Suppose your business is in property or research. In that case, you can save time by using reverse image search to quickly identify the locations or objects you see in photos.
Microsoft has also made it easier to flick through your photos and edit images by improving navigation and introducing a quick-access editing tool right in the app.
Another big bonus: You’ll now be able to sync Photos with iCloud – great for teams that use Apple devices alongside their Windows PCs.
These features should be rolling out soon in a future Windows 11 update.
