Android 16 QPR2 just made Desktop Mode more useful with Circle to Search

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Android 16 QPR2 adds support for using Circle to Search on external displays.
• Before this update, the feature would only work on a phone’s internal screen.
• You can trigger it on a monitor by long-clicking the home or app drawer buttons.

Circle to Search is one of Android’s most useful features, letting you quickly Google any text or image onscreen. It can translate text, identify songs, act as a game guide, and even warn you about potential scams. While Google has brought the feature to most premium Android phones since its debut, it has remained limited to their main, internal displays. Connect your phone to an external monitor, and you’ll find the feature unaware of its existence — fortunately, Google has addressed this limitation in the latest Android update.
