Screenshots are handy. You can use them to show your grandparent how to use a new app. You can use them to send a shot of that strange error message to your company\u2019s IT department. You can use them to capture tweets \u2014 yours or someone else\u2019s \u2014 before they disappear down the deletion black hole.<\/p>\n

Methods to take screenshots can differ depending on the version of Android your phone is running and also on who manufactured your phone. In this case, we used a Pixel 3 phone to create screenshots using Android 12 and Android 11 and an original Pixel to create screenshots with Android 10. Your mileage may vary, but this could give you at least some direction, even if you\u2019re using a different type of phone.<\/p>\n
