While working and browsing the web, we encounter many CAPTCHA codes developed by Google’s ReCAPTCHA company. We have previously discussed the importance of these codes, their types, evolution, and why they exist. Is it logical and necessary to waste a lot of time solving similar image puzzles of cars, crosswalks, storefronts, traffic signs, motorcycles, and regular bicycles just to prove that we are human? Based on that, here are some simple ways to bypass the images consumed by Google in what is called reCAPTCHA in order to reduce the hassle of dealing with this type of electronic torture and oppression in the hope of finding a way to get rid of it forever.
1. Change the type of CAPTCHA if possible
When encountering CAPTCHA on most websites, we can switch to another type that may be easier to solve and deal with than the default CAPTCHA that takes a lot of time. We have listed all types of CAPTCHA available in a previous article on our computer world blog, and some of the easier types include:
Screen lock CAPTCHA: It involves dragging the “Locked” lock from left to right to unlock it, Drag and drop CAPTCHA: It involves grabbing an element in the image and dragging it to the designated area, and Directional image CAPTCHA where you must click on the arrow parallel to the image direction. However, when switching the type of CAPTCHA on many websites, it redirects us to text or audio CAPTCHA. If you encounter a site that uses drag-and-drop CAPTCHA, you are lucky for the ease and speed of dealing with this type.

2. Use a CAPTCHA-solving bot
You can also download browser extensions that solve challenges for you, such as Buster, which does a great job in bypassing CAPTCHA challenges, including audio challenges. It is available with Chrome as well as Firefox. When faced with a visual challenge, activate the extension icon (see image above). This bot works to solve CAPTCHA codes, including audio ones. If this method does not work for you, try the other solutions in this list or try the ReCaptcha Solver extension also available for Chrome and Firefox.
3. Use a VPN (Virtual Private Network)
VPN websites allow you to legitimately bypass the roadblocks in ReCAPTCHA to get better results. Choose a well-known VPN service instead of free ones that come with their own set of problems. Good VPNs hide your traffic and protect your device details. You can quickly clear browser cache while changing the location by pressing Ctrl + H together to make the process faster than solving image puzzles.

4. Use a CAPTCHA-solving service
The good news is that there are many CAPTCHA-solving services that help you solve CAPTCHA using human data entry operators. Anti-Captcha is a good example with a fast response time of seven to ten seconds for each CAPTCHA. The service costs start at $0.5 per 1000 images based on the daily upload volume. The site provides a large number of workers and exceptional infrastructure that allows for reliable service 24/7/365 throughout the day, week, and year. Another option is 2Captcha, a similar service to the previous one. You can also work as a data entry operator on these websites and make a decent income based on how quickly you deal with the codes.
The truly good news is that Google finally realized its mistake and created the next version of CAPTCHA v3 reCAPTCHA. Using this version, users are not interrupted, but their actions on the website determine whether they are human or robots. This is what we will talk about in a forthcoming topic in the near future, highlighting the new features of the upcoming version of CAPTCHA. Stay tuned.
