Imagine you have just reached that adorable high level on Pokemon Captures, won a jackpot, or even chat directly with a top celebrity and want to show to colleagues and friends.

The best way to do it is getting a screenshot and saving it. However, while it is as simple as pressing a single button on the computer, many keep wondering how to take a perfect screenshot on the phone.

Because the screenshot captures the actions on the screen, you need to be on the right app such as the Facebook page, e-commerce store website, image editing page, or other apps on the screen.

Hold the power button and Home button at the same time and avoiding touching Siri or ID. The screen will be turned into a special camera that captures everything on display at that moment.

The screen will flash white and the common camera shutter sound will be heard. All the screenshots will be sent to the All Photos album if you are using iCloud. However, iPhone whose users do not have an iPhone account will save the screen shots on the Camera Roll.

3. Accessing screenshots on the phone

Screenshots are saved in the iPhone as images. To access them, you need to navigate to the Photos App from the phone’s Home page. Then, scroll down until you reach the bottom of the screenshots folder. If your iCloud is turned on, the screenshots will also be backed up automatically as photos with other data on your iPhone.

4. Using the iPhone screenshots

Just like common photos, you can edit the screenshots and use them in any photo application. Simply tap the photo directly to get a drop down menu giving you options for editing, viewing, favorite, editing, or sharing. Besides, you can also tap the camera icon or utilize the editing menu in applications such as messages or mail if you want to insert the screenshot into texts and emails.
