Taking a screenshot on an iPhone 6 is a quick and simple process that allows you to capture and save what’s displayed on your screen. Whether you want to save important information, share something with a friend, or keep a record of a conversation, a screenshot is an easy way to do it. Here’s how to take a screenshot on iPhone 6 using different methods.
- Using the Physical Buttons
The easiest and most common way to take a screenshot on an iPhone 6 is by using the Power button and Home button.
Steps:
- Open the screen you want to capture.
- Press and hold the Power button (located on the right side of the iPhone 6).
- At the same time, press the Home button (the circular button below the screen).
- Quickly release both buttons.
- You will see a flash on the screen, and a camera shutter sound will play (if your sound is on), indicating the screenshot was taken.
- Finding the Screenshot
After capturing the screenshot, it is automatically saved in the Photos app.
To view your screenshot:
- Open the Photos app on your iPhone.
- Go to the Screenshots album or check the Recents album.
- Tap on the screenshot to view, edit, or share it.
- Editing and Sharing the Screenshot
Once you have taken a screenshot, you can edit or share it immediately.
- Tap on the preview that appears at the bottom left of the screen after taking the screenshot.
- Use the markup tools to draw, highlight, or crop the screenshot.
- Tap the share icon to send the screenshot via WhatsApp, Messages, Email, or other apps.
- Taking a Screenshot Without Buttons (Using AssistiveTouch)
If your Power or Home button is not working, you can use AssistiveTouch, a built-in iPhone feature that allows you to take screenshots without pressing physical buttons.
Enabling AssistiveTouch:
- Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch.
- Tap AssistiveTouch and turn it ON.
- A floating button will appear on your screen.
Taking a Screenshot with AssistiveTouch:
- Tap the AssistiveTouch button.
- Select Device > More > Screenshot.
- The screen will flash, confirming that the screenshot has been taken.
