Musician Pete Wentz has been enjoying the app:

Other users, such as the writer Susie Meister and the author of this article were less than impressed with their matches:

“When you take a photo with this feature, your photo is sent to Google to find artworks that look like you,” explains Google. “Google won’t use data from your photo for any other purpose and will only store your photo for the time it takes to search for matches.”

The portrait comparison is just one feature of the app, which also lets users take virtual tours of historic museums such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. Users can also browse artworks by color and time period and zoom into famous artworks such as Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night.”
