Click on any image on the web to search for it on TinEye. Recommended by Firefox! Discover where an image came from, see how it is being used, check if modified versions exist or locate high resolution versions. Made with love by the TinEye team.

Features & Capabilities

TinEye Reverse Image Search is the official extension developed by the TinEye team, enabling users to quickly discover an image's origin, usage, and existence of higher-resolution versions. Simply right-click any image and search it on TinEye to debunk fake images, find stock photos, attribute images correctly, verify profiles, and more.

The extension respects privacy by never saving images and only sharing minimal version data. Users can customize how results open (current, new active, or background tab) and sort results by relevance, date, or image size. This trusted tool helps ensure image authenticity and proper usage across the web with ease and security.

User Reviews

Multiple reviewers say TinEye used to work well and saved time, but recent feedback focuses on reliability problems and poor search effectiveness: many users report errors, searches failing, or images not being found across sites.
Pros
  • Previously reliable and worked well for many users (used to be a go-to addon)
  • Saves time and is convenient for reverse image lookup when it works
Cons
  • Currently unreliable — many users report errors, "Oops, something went wrong," or that the extension never works
  • Poor detection/results — users say it often finds nothing or cannot read images on many sites
Recent reviews
This extension doesn't seem to work aside from searching obviously old images, like memes. I've tried searching images posted by Reddit users, for example, and not a single one had search results - not even the original source if it was posted only to Reddit once. I encountered this with obviously reposted images as well. I compared this behavior to another search tool that leverages multiple search engines and had positive results.

Is TinEye Reverse Image Search Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

TinEye Reverse Image Search does not require any sensitive permissions.
