RevEye Reverse Image Search Extension

This extension allows to perform an inverse image search by right-clicking onto any image in a web site.

You can configure the context menu to contain either a single button with your default search engine, or a cascaded menu with all included search engines. You can also add custom search engines through the options menu.

RevEye is free and open source software. To minimize its memory footprint in your browser, it is written in pure vanilla JavaScript and it does not use any of the fancy JavaScript frameworks. RevEye does not track any of your data, and it does not include ads.

K Larsen (ID: 00000030ae136773) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/31/2024 This is the best reverse image search with multiple sites. BTW, Baidu and Tineye are AWFUL. Find apps that work around the world. Yandex is by far and away the best.

M W (ID: 0000001308d85665) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 02/18/2023 Doesn't work on a lot of sites. Uses google lens - worthless. And yandex, almost worthless. And TinEye, which is good. So I uninstalled this and just went with the TinEye extension and I'm nuch happier using that.
