To use Visual Look Up on an iPhone/ iPad, make sure your iPhone is updated to latest iOS 17
Open a photo in full screen or pause a video on any frame.
How to use Visual Look Up on an iPhone/ iPad:
If the Info button shows a symbol with stars (e.g., Detected Dog or Detected Laundry), Visual Look Up is available for that photo.
Tap the starred Info button, then tap Look Up to view the results, which can include information about dog breeds or laundry symbols.
To close the Visual Look Up results, tap the Close button, and to exit the photo information, swipe down on the photo or video frame.
iOS 17 introduces visual changes to Visual Look Up, transforming the "i" symbol into a plant, dog, laundry basket, or monument based on what it detects.
