Method 1: Button Combination
- For Most Samsung Devices:
- Press and hold the Power button and Volume Down button simultaneously for about 1-2 seconds.
- You will see a flash on the screen, and a toolbar will appear at the bottom confirming that the screenshot has been taken.
Method 2: Palm Swipe Gesture (if enabled)
- Enable Palm Swipe:
- Go to Settings > Advanced Features > Motions and gestures.
- Toggle on Palm swipe to capture.
- To Take the Screenshot:
- Place the side of your hand against the edge of the screen.
- Swipe your hand across the screen from one side to the other.
Method 3: Bixby Voice
- Using Bixby:
- Activate Bixby by saying “Hi Bixby” or pressing the Bixby button (if available).
- Say “Take a screenshot.”
Method 4: Using the Smart Select Feature
- Open the Edge Panel:
- Swipe in from the edge of the screen to access the Edge Panel.
- Select Smart Select:
- Choose the Smart Select option and select the shape you wish to capture (rectangle, oval, etc.).
Accessing Your Screenshot
After taking a screenshot, you can find it in the Gallery app under the album named “Screenshots.” You can also access it from the notification panel immediately after taking it.
Notes:
- The exact steps may vary slightly depending on the Samsung device or version of Android you are using.
- If the button combination does not work, ensure that your device is not in a case that might prevent the buttons from being pressed properly.
