Google will save your Lens photos, Search Live recordings, and Translate audio for AI training

The Verge·June 10, 2026

Google is introducing a new "Search Services History" setting that will save users' interactions with Search, including images from Google Lens, Search Live recordings, and audio from Translate. These saved interactions will be used to improve Google's AI training and provide better services. Users have the option to disable the Search Services History setting and the "Save Media" feature if they prefer not to have their interactions saved. By doing so, users can control how their data is used by Google.
