Is there an alternative for taking screenshots in tablets?

LaDouleur — Sun, 07 Feb 2021 08:08:17 GMT

Hi! This isn't really a big deal but it's just that the standard way is inconvenient for me because I have very small hands. I also know that there's an air command and I can use either Smart Select or Screen Write but they don't directly save the screenshots like in the standard way. I really appreciate these features but sometimes I just need an instant sc of stuff. I'm also trying to avoid third party apps as much as possible.

But if there's no other way then it's okay 😃

Aside from the Assistant Menu, you can also install SoftKey Edge from the Galaxy Store. It acts like an Edge application that contains 5 commonly used buttons - Screenshot, Lock, Recent, Back and Home. If your tablet has the Edge options you can use this app.

There's 2 ways without using 3rd party apps.

1. Go to Accessibility.
2. Go to interaction and dexterity
3. Turn on assistant menu
4. The assistant menu pop up button will appear which will give an easy way to do a screen shot and other things.

Pro Tip: Increase transparency of the pop up button so you can leave it anywhere on your screen while being unobtrusive.

The 2nd option is to use Edge panels and activate "tasks" so you can take a quick screen shot.
