How can we help you, agent?

Time to learn something new! The process of taking screenshots and recordings differs on Android and iOs. We will cover both options.

Take a screenshot or record your screen on your Android device

You can take a picture (screenshot) or record a video of your phone’s screen. After you capture your screen, you can view, edit, and share the image or video.

Important: Some of these steps work only on Android 11 and up. Learn how to check your Android version.

Take a screenshot

1. Open the screen that you want to capture.

2. Depending on your phone:

• Press the Power and Volume down buttons at the same time.

• If that doesn’t work, press and hold the Power button for a few seconds. Then tap Screenshot.

• If neither of these work, go to your phone manufacturer’s support site for help.

3. At the bottom left, you’ll find a preview of your screenshot. On some phones, at the top of the screen, you’ll find Screenshot capture.

Find, share & edit your screenshot

Tip: If you don’t have the Photos app, you’re likely running an older Android version. Open your phone’s Gallery app and tap Album view > Screenshots folder.

1. Open the Photos app
