How to take a screenshot with your galaxy device?
Whether you just reached a new level in a game or want to save an important document, you can capture it by taking a screenshot on your Galaxy phone. Depending on the type of phone you have, capturing a screenshot may be a little different. Either way, it's an easy and convenient process for saving images on your phone.
The first tried-and-true method for taking a screenshot is using the power and volume-down keys on your Galaxy device.
When you want to take a screenshot, just hold the volume down key and the power key (side key) simultaneously. The screen will flash, indicating that a screenshot was captured.
Note: Usually, the Volume keys are on the left side and the Power button (or Side key) is on the right. However, for some models, the keys' locations may be reversed. Or, all the keys could be on the same side!
If you're not able to use the physical buttons, you can try doing a palm swipe to take a screenshot just by swiping the edge of your hand across your phone's screen.
Note:
- From Settings, search for and select Palm Swipe to capture and enable it.
- This function may not be available on all Galaxy phones.
If the web page is too long to capture in just one screenshot, scroll capture will let you take one big screenshot so you get the whole picture.
If you have Bixby Voice or Google Assistant set up, you can take a screenshot with a simple voice command. Say, "Hey Bixby, take a screenshot," and Bixby will capture what's on your screen.
You can even string together complex commands and say, "Hey Bixby, take a screenshot."
The S Pen's Screen Write feature can easily snap a quick screenshot of whatever you're doing on the phone.
