This is android
I still don't know what they are referencing then cause whatever is going on doesn't happen for me.
You click both volume down and power buttons at the same time to take a screenshot, if you happen to click the volume down first the volume slider will show up
Maybe this is launcher specific, but on Pixel phones, when pulling up the list of apps to switch to, there's a screenshot button, which is way easier and can be done with one hand.
I thought all andoird phones had the ability now to three finger swipe to take a screenshot. That's what I use.
I thought all ~~andoird~~ Android phones had the ability now to three finger swipe to take a screenshot
I don't think I've ever had this functionality. I've always used Google phones (Nexus and now Pixel).
I did have to turn it on. Under screenshot settings. If it's not in stock android, they should add it.
Double tap the back of your phone
I thought it is a oneplus thing.
I do have a oneplus, but I also upgraded 2 android versions when I got it.
Holy shit, thanks, I saw it countless times and never thought about it when I wanted to take a screenshot 🤡
Fairphone with Nova launcher, still have the screenshot button
I don't laubcher can customize task switcher, this should be an AOSP feature?
No no no first you click volume up and power. Then you press down and power so you can take a screenshot of your volume level.
Not to mention both buttons are on the same side on Pixels. This means I have to do this awkward gesture where I wrap my left hand around the back to press the power button, then press the volume button with my right hand.
On iPhone, I pinched.
To say Android is objectively better than iPhone is a huge stretch. Maybe in the old days when phones still had rear fingerprint scanners.
Lol, just to reply to the other two commenters, this meme includes androids, as this audio volume slider is from Miui/Hyper OS, the rom used by Xiaomi devices
Source: I use a xiaomi mi 10😄
And the three-finger thing is definitely there
Yeah (but I dont use it very much😅)
This is why andriod is better, just swipe your hand across the screen. Then done.
That’s vendor specific. I’ve never had a phone that supports that.
Also there few times I’ve tried it went even worse than trying to use volume and power.
I have both the screen wipe and the two button press.
The swipe is unreliable and often delayed. Most of the time I end up going back a page if trying to screenshot a web page even if I start my hand in the middle of the screen.
The two buttons frequently brings up the volume.
I just want two more buttons I can bind to whatever I want as single or double clicks.
I never can get that one to consistently work. Any trick to it?
Hold your hand like you're going to karate chop your phone. But start from the very left, then jedi wave across the screen. You do have to touch slightly the screen
Skill issue
Why are so many images being shared in webp format these days?
That's how they end up being saved as on a lot of sites, so if they are being shared by people downloading and reuploading elsewhere it would spread the .webp file instead of the original.
Significantly smaller than .jpg
I disabled the screenshot button combo because I kept taking screenshots locking my phone... Now I just accidentally bring up the emergency menu all the time.
I haven't had this issue in ages, my current and previous phone support three fingers on screen as the screenshot trigger
Mine has a programmable hardware button. One click does a screenshot, two clicks lights the torch, click and hold summons an app.
Nice, what brand is it? Mine is a motorola and for the Torchlight I just shake it. A programmable button sounds neat though
I didn't have a problem on my previous phone but I have a Pixel 8 rn and it has all the buttons on one side making the screenshot combo just extra awkward.
This is why I love the Quick Tap feature on Pixel phones.
