Overview
- Tapping a highlighted image in Recents now opens the system share sheet, with copy remaining as an option within that panel.
- A one‑tap local save is no longer offered, so saving requires sharing to Files by Google for a download or to Google Photos for an upload.
- 9to5Google, Android Authority, and Android Headlines corroborate the behavior on devices updated to Android 16 QPR3 this month.
- The previous quick path to Google Lens from this menu is bypassed by the new share‑centric flow.
- Devices not yet on QPR3 retain the prior behavior, and some users report inconsistent text selection after the update.
