The Morning After: Apple makes its iOS Find My features much more useful
One of the most useful new features in the public beta of iOS 18.2 is the capability to share the location of a lost item connected to Apple's Find My network. Sure, you could already share an item's location with people in your contacts list, but Apple says this could help when you have to rely on the help of a stranger.

When you choose Share Item Location in the Find My app on iPhone, iPad or Mac, you get the option to share a link that shows the location of your missing item. The link's recipient will be able to open it on any device, and they'll also be able to see your Apple account email and/or phone number so they can get in touch with you. You can even share the information with selected airlines. Apple has apparently worked with several carriers to integrate this feature into their systems.

Better still, air transport tech company SITA is also incorporating Share Item Location into WorldTracer, its baggage-tracing system. Apple says more than 500 airlines and ground handlers at 2,800-plus airports use it. Perfect for when I head to Portugal in just five days' time. Yes, brag.

For now, it's part of the public beta, so if you want the feature, you'll have to install iOS 18.2.

Chrome for iOS now lets you add text to Google Lens visual searches
If you use Chrome on your iPhone, you're about to see some features sliding over from the Android version. Google Lens will let you add text to your image searches, and you can save files and pictures directly to Google Drive and Photos. You can get "Shopping Insights" for products you're browsing.

Chrome for iOS now lets you add words to your Google Lens visual searches, allowing you to add nuance to your query or "perform more complex and specific searches," as Chrome Product Manager Katia Muradyan wrote in a blog post. After activating Lens by tapping the camera icon in the Chrome search bar, you can ask questions about the object you're snapping a pic of, and it will produce corresponding results. Google says AI Overviews will also appear for some of these search results.

The feature shares some common ground with an Apple Intelligence feature for iPhone 16 owners in iOS 18.2, which is currently in beta. Visual Intelligence lets you point your camera at something and get info about it, including asking ChatGPT questions about it or searching for it on Google.
