How to take screenshots on OnePlus smartphones
1: Use your phone’s buttons
Arguably the easiest and well-known method requires your OnePlus smartphone’s buttons. This is a common method that also works across all Android phones.
- Press and hold down the power and volume down keys simultaneously.
- Once the screen flashes, let go of both buttons.
2: Use a three-finger swipe
On some OnePlus phones, the phone button method may require two hands. However, this nifty gesture baked into Oxygen OS allows you to take a screenshot using a three-finger swipe. Here’s how to do it:
- Check if the feature is enabled by heading to Settings > Buttons & gestures > Quick Gestures. Switch on Three-finger screenshot if it’s not already.
- Navigate to the content you wish to capture, then swipe up or down on the display with three fingers.
3. Take an expanded screenshot
What if there’s content not currently on the screen you wish to capture? Well, OnePlus also lets you capture “expanded” screenshots of an entire webpage or list.
- Capture a screenshot using one of the two methods outlined above.
- Once a preview appears in the bottom-right corner of the display, tap on the Expanded Screenshot button below it.
- This will take you back to the original screenshot, but the display will begin scrolling.
- Tap anywhere on the display to stop the screenshot, or let it continue to capture all available content.
- You can also crop the screenshot to size before saving or sharing it. Once you’re happy, tap the Checkmark icon in the top-right of the screen to save the screenshot.
4: Use a voice assistant
Finally, if you can’t physically reach your phone but want to capture content on your screen, you can employ Google Assistant.
- Activate Assistant by saying, Hey Google.
- Finally, say Take a screenshot.
That it. Now you know how to take a screenshot on OnePlus smartphones. Let us know which method you use in the comments below.
