To view the new AR insects, all you need to do is search for the name of the insect and then tap on the "View in 3D" option on your phone or tablet. Interestingly, Android users can even choose to hear the insects hover around them.


If you aren't too keen on seeing AR insects hover in your living room, you can view 3D land animals, house pets, birds, and underwater animals in search. Aside from animals, you can also check out a wide range of other 3D objects such as planets, moons, cars, animal cells, and more.
