Google, Yandex or TinEye: Which Is The Best Image Search Engine? Well, a lot of years have passed, and we can’t still get over the image search trend. Yes, it’ll be here for a very long time.
Looking back, you have a lot of reverse image search engines tried. But, most of us want to know which is the best image search engine. Yes, we’ll discuss three of the biggest reverse image search engines out there: Google, Yandex and Tineye.
Google Images
Google Images is a prominent image search engine. In June 2011, Google Images introduced a new reverse picture search feature.

Uploading a photo from your computer or putting the image’s URL into the search bar are both options for a reverse photo search. It is effective in both ways. You may also drag and drop the image into the search box.
After that, Google Photos utilizes algorithms to discover similar images based on various variables like shape, size, color, and resolution.
Furthermore, Google Photographs is completely free to use, with no restrictions on file size or kind, and it has the most images indexed. As a result, the likelihood of finding a match is extremely high.
You can’t do a reverse image search on Google Images’ mobile site since you can’t upload or provide a link to a photograph. To look for an image, you can only use text.
Meanwhile, you may request a desktop site and go that way on your smartphone, but it’s a little awkward.
TinEye
TinEye is a product of Idee Inc., a Toronto-based company. It is the most popular and frequently used reverse search engine, with 13.9 billion photographs indexed.
TinEye also claims to be the first website in the world to use image recognition technology. Simply upload or provide a link to the desired image and instruct the application to hunt for similar photographs to use this service.
JPEG, PNG, and GIF photographs are okay, with a maximum upload size of 20 MB. On the other hand, TinEye does not recognize the individuals or objects in the image, only the image as a whole.
It can also determine who is illegally using copyrighted photographs. As a result, it’s now a very useful search engine. It also offers Chrome, Firefox, and Safari browser extensions, which can be beneficial if you use these services frequently.
TinEye’s free version enables up to 150 searches every week. However, suppose you want to use TinEye’s sophisticated capabilities and go above the search limit. In that case, you’ll need to purchase its commercial version, which starts at $200 for 5000 picture searches over two years.
Yandex
The most popular search engine in Russia, Yandex, offers its own reverse photo search feature. Yandex Images lets you upload images directly from your PC or a URL. You may also use the file-size filter to limit your search results (Large, Medium, Small).
The firm designed this search engine to find duplicate images. It’s a straightforward reverse image search engine that doesn’t require you to register.
You can rapidly search for any image on virtually any website using the Yandex browser by right-clicking it and selecting “search for this image on Yandex.”
Well, the three are great in their own ways. So, I should say that it’s simply an issue of personal preference and taste.
