The Google Camera app could become the best shopping assistant

How many times have we wanted to know if a certain product that we have seen in a store can be found cheaper on the Internet? Many times we turn to Amazon, but the truth is that this is limiting the search a lot. Soon that could change. And is that the app itself Google camera It might be able to tell us where to buy and at what price what is in front of us.

This function could soon be integrated into the Google Camera app itself, and even Android's. They are not the same. Android is a free operating system. When a manufacturer is going to include it on their smartphone, it includes some standard apps, Android apps, including the Android Camera. In addition to these, you can request a license from Google to include Google apps, including Google Camera. The best thing is that this app can be updated from Google Play, so for this function to arrive, you will not have to wait for a new operating system update to arrive, but simply an update of the app on Google Play.

How It Works

Actually the function of the app is remarkably simple. We focus on that object whose price we want to know, we surround it so that the app can know which one we are referring to in case more targets appear in the shot, and it will be able to locate which object it is, if it is for sale, where we can buy it , and at what price. Here comes the benefit for Google, because for each sale that a store makes like this, it could make a profit. You could also charge stores for their products to appear before other stores, or for similar products to appear before those products we are looking for.

For now, of course, we will have to wait to see if this new function is already included in the next update of the Google Camera app from Google Play.
