Nothing's Essential Space has been updated with two new sharing-related improvements that make it easier to transfer information stored on the company's phones. The artificial intelligence (AI)-powered hub was first introduced with the Nothing Phone 3a series, which was launched on March. A user can tap the dedicated Essential Key on the side of the phone to take a screenshot of the information on the display. They can then take typed or voice notes regarding the content present in the screenshot, which is saved to the Essential Space.

Essential Space Lets Users Share Audio Directly With Other Apps

The Carl Pei-led tech company said in an X (formerly Twitter) post that it is updating the Essential Space to introduce two new features that are claimed to make sharing of the captured content easier for users. The update can also be manually downloaded from the Google Play Store if it hasn't automatically been installed.

The most notable improvement is the ability to share Flip-to-Record audio clips. A highlight of the Essential Space hub was to take voice notes regarding the information being displayed in a screenshot. Now, users can share these audio clips directly from the hub to other apps. The new functionality has been added to the share menu of Essential Space.
