Having a screenshot is a simple yet powerful tool which allows users to fully capture exactly what's displayed on the screens at any given moment. Whether you're trying to save a picture of a web site, document a mistake message, or share something interesting from your device, screenshots are invaluable. The methods to have a screenshot vary with respect to the operating-system and device you're using, including Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and many other platforms. Understanding how to have a screenshot on all these systems ensures that you can quickly and effectively capture the information you need.

On iPhones, the method to take a screenshot depends upon the model.

Screenshots are automatically saved to the Screenshots album in the Photos app.

 

Android devices have a somewhat different method for taking screenshots, which could vary by manufacturer. Generally, you press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down button simultaneously before the screen flashes. Some Android devices, such as for example Samsung phones, also support taking screenshots by swiping the edge of your hand over the screen (Palm Swipe). Screenshots are usually saved in the Screenshots folder in the Gallery or Photos app. Additionally, many Android devices offer built-in screenshot tools in the Quick Settings menu, accessible by swiping down from the the surface of the screen.
