Google Now on Tap update brings easier screenshots to Android users

PanARMENIAN.Net - To take a screenshot on an Android phone so far, users have typically had to press an awkward button combo - or, worse, use a palm gesture. It's getting much easier, though. Google is pushing a Google search app update for Android that lets Marshmallow users take screenshots using Now on Tap, Engadget reports.

All users do is invoke Now on Tap and hit a share button to send it to their app of choice. This isn't a straightforward replacement for the hardware command, since it doesn't save images right away (you need to choose a destination first) and has a long delay. However, it's both easier to use and gets rid of the usual notifications mess.
