The free app charts over the last week have included Google's Arts & Culture app after one of its interactive features went viral.

The app is initially better known for its virtual exhibition and digital artwork, providing many museum information and cultural events that could be around you. Its sudden popularity came out through an added option near the bottom of its scrolling interface asks users “Is your portrait in a museum?”

Once you tap the button, the app asks for permission to access your iPhone's camera and prompts you to take a picture which will be compared against thousand of digitized artwork in Google app’s database by using facial recognition technology, thereafter a set of closest matches pictures are brought.

Find who-looks-like you artwork feature added to the Google Arts & Culture in a December update with other bug fixes but without any momentum which is gained recently after some users and celebrities began sharing their results in social media.

The feature is not yet worldwide just limited to Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand and parts of the U.S. if you’d like to give it a try and also to look over other features you can download the free Google Arts & Culture app from App Store.
