OthersLast year, Google’s mobile browser introduced a custom share menu to replace the system default. Chrome for Android is now adding a built-in screenshot tool.
When you share in Chrome for Android — either via the overflow menu or from the address bar, a bottom sheet slides up. Since version 85 in August, Google has reorganized it so that the page name, URL, and favicon of the current site you’re visiting appears at the top. It’s then followed by a carousel of apps with “More” at the very right opening the Android default. The last row is home to actions like Copy link, Send to your devices, QR code, and Print.
Some users on Chrome 91 for Android are now seeing a “Screenshot” tool. Your entire screen, including the Omnibox, is captured with the bottom bar featuring tools to Crop, add Text, and Draw.
The Text UI is nifty in that the current field features corner shortcuts to crop, expand/tilt (by dragging) and deleting. Meanwhile, doodling lets you pick from 18 colors and six stroke sizes. Undo and redo is available through this tool.
