SWITCH UP YOUR PRINTING

I know what you’re thinking – the one thing your life is missing is the ability to print out tiny images of screenshot­s from your Nintendo Switch.

Fear not, help is on the way. In perhaps the most niche product launch ever featured on these pages, Fujifilm has teamed up with Nintendo to solve the problem no one knew they had.

There’s a new app that allows you to access screenshot­s from your Switch and print them out on the Instax mini Link printer.

The printer is actually pretty cool, and, of course, you are not limited to printing out Switch screenshot­s – you can print any photos from your phone’s photo reel.

But for all those who need a pic of their Animal Crossing village or of the man Mario himself, the app is free to download now.

The mini Link printer costs £109 and you’ll find more details about it at instax.com/mini_link/en/

TWITTER STARTS TO OPEN SPACES

After a while in testing, Twitter is now rolling out the ability to start Spaces to all users with more than 600 followers.

Spaces are audio chat rooms in which users can host their own audio events and curate the participat­ion of other users who join the Space.

Says Twitter: “Spaces encourages and unlocks real, open conversati­ons on Twitter with the authentici­ty and nuance, depth and power only the human voice can bring.

“Spaces are for small and intimate conversati­ons with just a few others, or for big discussion­s about what’s unfolding right now with thousands of listeners.”

Eventually the service will roll out to everyone, and Twitter is still working on tweaking it based on user feedback.

Features promised, but still to come, include ticketed Space, which allows users to charge for access, co-hosting, and the ability to schedule Spaces and set reminders.
