The list may not include every eligible devices. So, if your device is on the list, that’s great, but if not, there are some chances that you will get this feature if the device is new or only a year old.
Circle to Search requires a specific code for the long press navigation handle, which is not present in Android 14. And this is the reason why many Android phones are expected to get this feature only after the Android 15 update.
Samsung and Google has managed to bring this feature to their devices with a big update that include the required code. But other brands have not released any major update after the Android 14.
On most devices, this should be enabled by default when the feature is available. You can trigger the circle to search by pressing and holding the Home button if you are using three button navigation or the bottom bar if you are using gesture navigation. You can then select the item you want to know about, translate text, or find the Music by humming or playing in the background.
You can also view your search history and also delete the history. And to get out of the Circle to Search you can tap the cross ‘X’ icon on the top left.
