Doesn't work with Firefox, or at least not the version I have

You can either get the addon for that or use a link, containing the following piece of code, as a bookmark and simply click the bookmark when you've opened the picture in question.

javascript:(function(){location.href='http://www.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href);})();

Just create a new bookmark and edit the url contained to the code above, then place it somewhere you remember, to then search simply directly view the image and hit the bookmark.

That bookmark will only work if you either use the desktop version or set the referrer to desktop on android.
The link will also work with any browser that's javascript enabled.

Thanks for the link to the addon, NotMeNoYouMoblie, I wasn't aware it existed.

Thanks for that bookmark, NotMeNotYou. Now I can use it on Android. It is a little fiddly though, I honestly can't understand why you can't search by image on Android in the first place, not even with the Google Search app.
