ASK ABOUT YOUR SCREEN

Ask AI about your screen on Mac, just by saying “screenshot this”

When a setting, a dialog or an error makes no sense, skip the routine of taking a screenshot, opening a chat window, pasting it and typing out what you see. Press Fn+Space and say “screenshot this, how do I do it?” echo agent captures the window you are using and answers from the image.
