The museum selfie match feature of the Google Arts & Culture app that allows people to find their twin among thousands of famous artworks was made available globally for both Android and iOS users in September.

The “Art Selfie” tool was not initially available for users worldwide when the app first launched back in January.

The app is based on computer vision technology that enables users to find their art match among thousands of famous portraits, and will show you whether you look like Mona Lisa or not.

It also shows you an estimated percentage that ranks your similarity to the portrait.

The company has collaborated with over 1,200 museums and galleries in 70 countries to make their exhibits available for everyone online.

Google stated the aim of making Art Selfie available globally is to "make art more accessible to everyone."

People around the world have enjoyed sharing their results on social media, and many celebrity match-ups have gone viral.
