Until now, the internet contains countless multimedia contents like images. We often do not know where these photos and videos come from, while in some cases Internet users need to know. Finding its sources is not an easy task. For this, resorting to research devices is essential. From now on, these procedures seem more and more simple especially with the reverse image search technique. It should be noted that existing search engines can perform these interventions without difficulty. But nowadays, it is also possible to launch these searches via third-party apps like “Reversee”, “Veracity” and many more on iOS devices like iPhone and iPad.
Search by Google Chrome app usage
To perform a reverse image search on an iPhone and iPad using a Google Chrome app, you just need to follow a few rules. In this part, we will explain how to do it. However, it is good to know that downloading the image you are looking for on your device is not mandatory. The procedures are as follows:
- First, you need to install the Google Chrome app via App Store in case you don't have one yet;
- Then, open this search engine and go to the page where the photo you want to search is located;
- Once these steps are reached, you must hold the image until an option bar appears;
- Find the menu "Google search for this image", click on it and the search will be launched.
On the other hand, if the image is already in your device, the steps are not the same. For this case, please follow the following:
- First, go to image.google.com;
- Then click on the menu bar which appears as three dots;
- When the menu is displayed, you must select the item "View the computer version";
- Finally, please find the icon in the search bar which can allow you to paste an image URL or upload one for reverse search initiation.
Reverse Image Search with Third-Party Apps

Reversee is an application that can be downloaded for free via App Store. It will allow its users to run reverse image search with multiple search engines at the same time. It is possible to make an extension on Safari in a few clicks. This application works by collecting all the images on the page you are on. Then you just have to select the image you want to search for. In addition, before launching the search, Reversee offers you the opportunity to be able to crop and adjust the image to benefit the search.
- Veracity
It is a simple, yet effective research tool. Veracity will not disclose the search engines it examines during reverse image search. However, it provides support to identify the content of the image. What differentiates it from other search applications is that it provides more information. For example, if you do any search through this application, it not only gives you the source of the image, but it also gives you the Pinterest URL of its results. All the more, you can make any modification to these photos via Veracity. To benefit from these advantages, Veracity offers you to enter paid mode.
