How to take a screenshot on your Android device
In the early days of Android
Taking a screenshot on a phone or a tablet was a pain
But now the ability to take a screenshot is built into the OS
We're going to show you how to take a screenshot
On an Android smartphone or tablet
Including the Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC, Sony Experia,
Nexus 6V, and other Android tablets and phones
Ready?
Step 1
How to take a screenshot summary
You know, there's no print screen option on Android
As there is on a Windows PC or a laptop
But taking a screenshot is easy
Press and hold together the power
And the volume down buttons
Or if your device has a home button instead
Try power and home as you would on an iPhone or iPad
In the early days of Android
Taking a screenshot on a phone or a tablet was a pain
But now the ability to take a screenshot
Is baked into the OS
For the vast majority of Android phones and tablets
To take a screenshot you simply press and hold the power
And volume down buttons together
There is a slight knack to this action
Press the power button too soon
And the display will switch off
Press the volume button too soon and your screenshot
May be barred by an on-screen volume slider
After a few seconds the screen will flash
And a notification will appear
In the dropdown bar at the top of the screen
Giving you options to delete, share, or edit the image
You can also access the screenshot from your gallery
If your device has a physical home button
As is the case with the Samsung Galaxy S6
You may find that there is a different method
For taking a screenshot
On the Galaxy S6 you press and hold the
Power and home buttons together
