Yandex Market added refinement of characteristics when searching by photo

Yandex Market has become the first marketplace in Russia that allows users to search for products by photo with the ability to specify desired characteristics – color, size or style. The new feature helps users find suitable models faster and avoid wasting time browsing through irrelevant offers.

To use the update, just click the camera icon in the search bar, upload a photo of the item, and enter details in the special text field. For example, if you upload an image of a pink dress and specify that you want a blue or long-sleeved version, the app will only show you the relevant results.

Search has become more accurate and convenient

The innovation works not only with clothes, but also with other categories: home appliances, electronics, furniture, jewelry, etc. Users can specify wishes for items of any type. This allows for a more informed and faster choice – especially when matching specific requirements is important.

The system automatically selects products that are as close to the original image as possible, taking into account additional features. This approach simplifies the selection process and reduces the time it takes to buy.

Additional barcode search

In conjunction with the visual search update, Yandex Market is offering an alternative method – barcode search. Users can point the camera at the product’s packaging and the app will automatically find it in the catalog.

This option is especially useful for finding consumables, auto accessories, and other items with unique markings. Barcode scanning helps you quickly find exact items without having to manually enter the name or model.
