4 Ways to Take an iPhone Screenshot for All Series

Not many iPhone users understand how to screenshot the desired screen. Then check out this review so you won't be confused anymore!

The screenshot feature plays an important role and is very useful for taking pictures on any cellphone, including the iPhone. Unfortunately, many users don't know how to take a screenshot on their iPhone, regardless of the series.

In fact, taking photos on iPhone is very easy and offers many variations from using apps to using buttons. However, the method for taking iPhone screenshots is not the same in several series. Read more below, come on! 

Using Volume and Power Buttons

One way to take screenshots on an iPhone is to use the volume up button and the power button. This screenshot method applies to iPhone 11, 12, 13, 14, X, XR and series where the home button is no longer under the screen. Here's how.

  1. Turn on your iPhone.
  1. Prepare the image or screen that you want to screenshot. 
  1. Press the power button and volume up button simultaneously and wait a moment.
  1. If you hear a beep and the iPhone screen flashes, it means the screenshot process was successful.
  1. Check the shots by opening the photo gallery on the iPhone. 

Using the Home and Power Buttons

For those of you who have an iPhone series with a home button, whether it's Touch ID or not, you don't need to worry. Taking photos with the iPhone series 5, 5s, 6, 7 and 8 is not much different from the previous series.

It's just that before you replaced the volume up with the home button at the bottom of the screen. Here's the way!

  1. Turn on your iPhone. Select the screen you want to screenshot
  1. Press the power and home buttons simultaneously.
  1. If the screenshot is successful, the iPhone screen will flash.
  1. Check the screenshot results in the special iPhone folder. 

Using AssistiveTouch

If you're worried you can't simultaneously press the buttons and want it to happen automatically, try AssistiveTouch. This iPhone screenshot method is usually used when the iPhone's home or power button is broken.

Here's how to enable Assistive Touch and use it to capture your screen.

  1. Go to the Settings page, select Accessibility, click Touch, then click AssistiveTouch.
  1. Activate the AssistiveTouch menu until the circle menu color turns green. When it's on, tap AssistveTouch on the iPhone screen.
  1. Go to the Devices menu and select Add.
  1. Click Screenshot to take a photo. 

Using the Back Tap Feature

For those of you with the iPhone 12 series or later, you can use the back tap feature. This feature allows you to take screenshots by double or triple tapping on the back of the phone. Here are the steps!

  1. Go to the Settings page, select Accessibility, click Touch, then press Back.
  1. Decide if you want to use double or triple tap.
  1. Choose a screenshot system. Try taking a screenshot by double or triple tapping on the back of the phone. 

So, those were a series of iPhone screenshot methods that you can try to record the screen on your cellphone. Hopefully the methods above are useful for you and can be used if needed, good luck!
