On my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, I used to long-press the Home button to bring up Google Now and use one of the icons on the bottom to temporarily take a screenshot and instantly share it with a contact of my choice.

This allowed me to skip having to delete the screenshot file, which is what I would have to do with the Home + Power*shortcut.

However, recently (perhaps as of v7.2.26.21 a few days ago), the icons along the bottom are missing.

Have Google being removing features "that no one used", again? :(

I just tried on my Nexus 6P running 7.1.2 (non-beta but I am enrolled in the beta channel for the Google app) and I was able to share a screenshot from the long-press home button. I have version 7.3.16.21 for the Google app.
