Computer question

Any of you computer gurus know why Apple, in their wisdom, decided to eliminate the 'print' option that's long been available when you click on the 'share' symbol?  It used to appear when you clicked on the 'more' option but with 10.3.1 it's no longer there. 

I'm fairly sure it has something to do with Airdrop but, whatever, it's absence is a PITA.

    If you're on your iPhone, turn it to landscape mode and down at the bottom you'll see the 'share' symbol. Click on that and try to find a print option

    They do things like that just to keep you sharp Marty, if everything was always the same you become stagnant.

    Yep, I'm a stag. Oh, wait. A stag is one that's been de-nutted, right?  No, I guess I'm a bull...  

    Oh, you said 'stagnant'. Sorry. I've got only one eye left so.....

    I'd guess it's because so often that airdrop schidt is irrelevant.
    What people do, they just send their pic in a text or some such.

    Be my guess.

    Yeah, I'm told Airdrop has been around for a while. I've never had a need to use it so I've ignored it until now but I think tha change that's pissing me off must've come with the latest update. Prior to that, my iPhone worked just fine, thank-you-very-much. 

    You know the old saying, if it ain't broke don't fix it.  :#

    It'd be nice, though, if there were some kind of work-around in this case.

    No particular app, @arch72, just anywhere on the phone. 

    Anytime I click on the 'share' symbol I get the above window. But if you scroll to the right of the 'add to notes' button you come to a 'more' button. This used to include a print option but it's gone now.

    @90+_Irishman is the man to ask, he works for apple.  He has not been around much, but if you have his number shoot him a text.

    On my phone the print option is below, can you see it if you rotate your phone or scroll up?
