I guess it's finally time to learn 'how to take a screenshot' if this is recommended to me in 2021.

[@peter_castle]

QUICK WAY HERE hold power and volume down for approx 1 second, until the screen visibly blinks and you know it took a screenshot. Then, to find said screenshot, there will probably be a notification or stored in google photos.

[@tvoovm7254]

If you're wondering how to do a screenshot on Android, press and hold the Power button, Down Volume button, and Home button simultaneously. It actually worked on my phone.

[@khanbomb]

It gave me voice commands

[@tvoovm7254]

@@khanbomb that's because you pressed at least 2 of the 3 buttons. Did you try pressing and holding all of the 3 buttoms at the same time?

Not EVERYONE was born AFTER computers were made available to the general public! I'm STILL learning new things ALL of the time! Thanks for the info, Mark! I've ALWAYS wondered just HOW ppl do this!😀
