Yes, it’s 100% free to use.
There’s no catch, no hidden premium version, and no ads. We built this as a powerful tool for everyone, and we make our money from our other business services.
Just enjoy it!
Absolutely!
This is where the power-users shine. You can set a custom keyboard shortcut right from the extension.
Click the QuickLens icon in your toolbar, and in the popup window, you’ll see an option to set up your keyboard shortcut instantly.
It’s a total game-changer.
Great question!
A normal right-click only works on some images. QuickLens lets you search anything.
You can drag a box over a product in a YouTube video, text from a screenshot, or a photo on a site like Instagram that blocks right-clicks.
It’s the “search anything” tool that a simple right-click can’t be.
You’ve found the exact reason we built QuickLens! Some websites (like Instagram or Facebook) intentionally block right-clicks to protect their content.
This isn’t a bug; it’s the website’s rule.
But you can easily get around this: just use the QuickLens “Search Area” tool from your toolbar (or keyboard shortcut) to search it anyway.
We give you options for every situation.
Search Area is your main tool—you draw a box over exactly what you’re curious about.
Search Full Screen scans the entire visible page at once.
Search Local Images lets you upload a file from your own computer. Use the one that fits the moment!
It’s not broken! This is actually a built-in security rule from Google. To keep you safe, all browsers (like Chrome, Edge, etc.) block extensions from running on their internal pages.
This includes:
Local files (like a PDF you opened from your computer)
The New Tab page
The Settings page (chrome://...)
The Chrome Web Store itself
It’s a hard rule that all extensions must follow. As soon as you’re on a normal website, QuickLens will be ready to go!
Whether it’s a brilliant suggestion for a new feature or a weird glitch, we want to hear it. Your feedback is what makes QuickLens better for everyone.
