Taking screenshots isn’t always easy due to the strange and different button combinations different manufacturers use. Plus, you don’t always want to save a screenshot. The information you’re sending to people is often stuff that you don’t need to keep.
An update rolling out to Google Now on Tap (seemingly backend rollout rather than app update) adds a new share button at the bottom left corner, which will share a screenshot of your display without showing your status bar or saving the screenshot to your device.
It’s definitely a useful addition, and may give people more of a reason to use Now on Tap. Let us know when you get it!

AT&T is having a sale, and it’s a significant one. When buying a select smartphone, you’ll be able to get $650 in bill credits for another device, making it free if it’s under $650. The Samsung Galaxy S6 32GB would end up being free, though the deal can be used for $650 towards other devices like the Galaxy Note 5, S6 edge, S6 edge+, S6 active, and even the iPhone 6s Plus.
The device won’t be entirely free, as you’ll have to pay tax on it, but the monthly charges on your AT&T Next plan will be covered. Getting a more expensive device or a higher storage level means you’ll only have to pay the difference in monthly cost.
You’ll also need to be using a qualifying service of at least $70 per month, and you’ll have to start another line. In the end, while it’s a good deal, it’ll still cost you more. But hey, if you needed another line anyway, this is perfect.
