New Google Lens features?

[KillerQ]

Will the newly released Google Lens modes (live translate, shopping, copy, and dinner menu) be making it to the one plus? I guess the question is, will Google allow that expanded lens capability on non-pixel phones?

I just tried on my OnePlus 7 Pro and all those modes are active on Google lens.

So the answer is yes

Great! They're just not baked into the official camera app then.... I can deal with that!

Thanks again!

That's correct, I triggered the lens app from the assistant.

Thinking of it, It's better that way since it's directly controlled by Google and they can update/add features directly as and when needed compared to OnePlus having to work with Google to integrate/update the lens feature in their camera app.

Even on the Pixel camera app on my 3a, it just launches the same lens interface so it's basically the same just that on most non pixel devices you launch lens from assistant.
