How do I turn off screenshots on Galaxy Note 20 ultra?

Keeps going off by accident.

Now before people reply saying that they have never done a screenshot by accident.

Neither had I with the Galaxy so but since I have upgraded I have done countless accidental screenshot which is extremely annoying.

They got rid off the bixby button so now doing an accidental screenshot is hard to not do.

How I turn off?

Screen shot seems to be a function of the phone software that you cannot turn off, but you can control it by going to Settings >Advanced Features > Screenshots and screen recorder.

I guess I am just gonna have to put up with it.

Hi Note20UltraFan, Thanks for providing the resolution.

Another annoying feature.  As a former programmer myself, I have to think some fall in love with some app they've created and don't realize how fast it gets old.

I'm curious if this is the "palm swipe to capture" under settings feature bc when I had that on I'd peruse my photos and notice lots of accidental screenshots 🤷

Thanks @mytech. Yes, there may be a possibility of being an issue due to this feature. 

Hi btrafford, Please check if swipe to capture is deactivated by opening Settings app >> Advanced features >> Motions and gestures >> toggle off the Palm swipe to
capture switch to disable it.
