The iPhone 7 has a lot of new features that users are still trying to get used to. One of these features is the way you take screenshots. In the past, taking screenshots on your iPhone was as easy as pressing the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button simultaneously. But with the removal of the Home button on the iPhone 7, that process has changed slightly. In this article, we will show you the different ways to take screenshots on iPhone 7.
The different ways to take screenshots on iPhone 7
There are many different ways how to screenshot on iPhone 7. One of the most popular ways is to use the new Home button shortcut. Here’s how to screenshot on iPhone 7 in many different ways.
1. Using the AssistiveTouch button
The other way, which may be new to some users, is by using AssistiveTouch. Here’s how it works:
1. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility.
2. Scroll down and select AssistiveTouch.
3. Turn on AssistiveTouch by tapping the slider next to it. This will add a small, white dot to your screen that you can move around as you please.
4. Tap the Customize Top Level Menu button (it looks like a star).
5. Tap the Screenshot button, which is the second button from the left in the fourth row.
6. Press the Lock button (on the right side of your phone) and volume down button (on the left side) simultaneously, then release both buttons when you see your screen flash white. Your screenshot will be saved in your Photos app.
2. Using Siri
If you don’t want to use AssistiveTouch, you can also take screenshots with Siri. Here’s how:
1. Press and hold the Home button to activate Siri.
2. Say “take a screenshot” or “take a photo.”
3. Siri will ask you to confirm that you want to take a screenshot. Tap Yes.
4. Your screenshot will be saved in your Photos app.
3. Using the new Home button shortcut
As we mentioned before, the process for taking screenshots has changed slightly with the removal of the Home button on the iPhone 7. Now, instead of pressing the Home button and Sleep/Wake button simultaneously, you need to press the Lock button and volume down button at the same time. Here’s how:
1. Press and hold the Lock button (on the right side of your phone) and volume down button (on the left side) simultaneously.
2. Release both buttons when you see your screen flash white.
3. Your screenshot will be saved in your Photos app.
