How do I take screenshots?

Here's how to take a screenshot:

On Android devices:

• Press the volume down button and the power button at the same time.

• The screen should flash, and you’ll see a notification that a screenshot has been captured.

• You can find the screenshot in your device’s Gallery or Photos app.

On iPhone/iPad:

• On devices with Face ID, press and release the side button and volume up button at the same time.

• On devices with a Home button, press the Home button and the side button (or Sleep/Wake button) together.
