How To Take A Screenshot Iphone 11

Upgraded from the iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, or iPhone 8 to the iPhone 11? Welcome to the world of Face ID and gesture-based navigation. You are not going to miss the home button on the iPhone 11 unless you try taking a screenshot. The lack of a home button means the process of taking a screenshot on the iPhone 11 is different on the iPhone 11 from older iPhones.

If you have ever used an iPhone X, iPhone XS, or even the iPhone XR though, you will be familiar with the process. Since the iPhone 11 lacks a home button, Apple employs a different hardware button combo on the device to take screenshots.

Step-by-Step Guide to Take Screenshot on iPhone 11

The steps on taking a screenshot are pretty easy to remember. All you need to do is:

Step 1: Press the Side button and Volume Up button

Press the Volume Up and theSide button (previously known as Sleep/Wake button) simultaneously on your iPhone 11. As soon as you let go off the buttons, a screenshot will be taken.

Step 2: Edit Screenshot

You'll hear the familiar camera shutter sound and the screenshot preview will show up at the bottom. Tap on it and you'll see the option to annotate and edit the screenshot. You can crop the screenshot from here as well.

To mute the screenshot sound, simply put your iPhone on mute.

Step 3: Share Screenshot

Tap and hold on the preview to directly jump to the Share sheet and send the screenshot to an app of your choice.

You can also dismiss the screenshot preview. The screenshot will be automatically saved in the Screenshot album in the Photos app.
