How Can You Use Circle to Search on Google Pixel 8 Devices
As the name suggests, Circle to Search basically lets you search by circling things on the screen. What you circle is what will be searched. As for how you can use the feature on the Google Pixel 8 devices, you have two options. If you have three-button navigation enabled, you need to long-press the home screen button.
