Hi, is the extension allowed to access all websites? It can be configured by going to Settings > Safari > Extensions. Are you getting any notifications from the extension when you try to search, and is the loaded Google Images page the mobile version, or the desktop version with very small UI elements?
hi! yes, allowed for all websites. mobile version of the site. no notifications. IMG_0011
Please test if the extension behaves the same way if you search with the Wikipedia logo on this page: https://www.wikipedia.org
Start a search with the "Select image" search mode, then switch to "Select URL" and repeat the search.
Does searching on Shutterstock work on your end?
none of those methods work for google, shutterstock and tineye work fine though
this is the url of the google page upon trying to search "https://www.google.com/imghp". should it include some query or is it through POST request?
That's the correct URL, but it should load the desktop version of the page, which in turn gives us access to Google Lens. The extension changes the user agent for the request to load the desktop version of the site, but for some reason it has no effect on your end. But even then, the extension should show an error notification if it does not find the expected UI elements on the page.
Are you using any kind of app or extension that modifies the user agent in Safari?
i tried disabling all the extensions and same thing. very weird
It could still be a permission issue when accessing Google, that would explain why the new user agent is not applied. Did Google Lens ever work for you, or have you only started using the extension recently? I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling the Search by Image app, then going to Settings again and making sure that the extension is allowed to access all websites, maybe that will solve the issue.
no, just bought it few days ago. i'll try to do that.
unfortunately still same issue persists
