In an Android phone or tablet, to take a screenshot is to press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down button simultaneously. A sound will confirm the screenshot was taken, and a preview will often appear in the corner of the screen. You can then tap the preview to edit the image.

Use the physical buttons
The universal Android method to capture the screenshot is to simultaneously press and release the Volume Down button and the Power button. To capture the screenshot first open the screen or page that you want to capture. Find the Power button and the Volume Down button on your device. Press and hold the two buttons at the same time, until you hear a shutter sound, then release the buttons.

After you take a screenshot, you’ll usually see a small preview or notification appear on top of the screen. Tapping this preview allows you to edit, crop, or share the screenshot before saving it. If you couldn’t spot the preview image, the screenshot is naturally saved to your phone’s photo gallery, typically in a folder named ‘Screenshots’.

Voice command
You can say “Hey Google, take a screenshot” to your device to capture the screen hands-free.

Hand Gestures
Some Android devices allow you to take a screenshot with a three-finger swipe down, a palm swipe, or a double-tap on the back of the phone. Check your device’s settings under Gestures to see if these options are available and enabled.
