Etsy launches “Image Search” feature! Now available to iOS users!

It is learned that according to foreign media reports, on November 2, Etsy announced the launch of the "Image Search" function, which supports users in its application to find products through pictures, no longer limited to word searches.

According to the report, users can click the "camera" icon in the search bar to upload pictures of items, or take pictures directly on the spot, and Etsy will display products similar to the user's pictures. Currently, this feature is only open to users of the iOS system, and will be expanded to Android users in the future.

An Etsy spokesperson said: "Previously, the fastest way to find products on Etsy was to search for keywords. Now, users can take a picture or upload a picture and find similar items in seconds."

Developing first-class search and discovery features has always been a key focus for Etsy. In early testing, Etsy found strong interest in the "Image Search" feature among buyers. Currently, this feature is launched first to iOS users. In the future, Etsy will continue to learn and improve the user experience and expand the "Image Search" feature to Android users as soon as possible.

Etsy said it has been investing more in products and services to make it easier for sellers to grow their businesses. The "Image Search" feature will increase sellers' exposure and help them connect with nearly 90 million buyers around the world.

It is learned that Etsy has recently launched a new Etsy Seller App to help sellers communicate with customers, easily manage orders and inventory, and effectively run online businesses. With the new Etsy Seller App, sellers can:

• Easily check order status and get important information at a glance, such as whether the buyer is a returning customer.
• Add photos and listing videos directly from your mobile device.
• When messaging a buyer, you can access order details and respond to common questions with saved quick replies.
• Purchase and print shipping labels through the app to save time and money.
• Manage inventory and access detailed insights into their store performance.
