How to take a screenshot on a moto g play

Sometimes a picture speaks louder than words. Share a screen capture of your favorite playlist, or your new high score.

Forward a screen capture of a friend’s contact information. If you can see it on your smartphone, you can share it with your friends.

Press and hold both the POWER BUTTON and VOLUME DOWN BUTTON for three seconds, or until you hear the camera shutter click.

  • To view the screen image, touch Apps > Gallery > Screenshots.

  • Press and hold the image for files and sharing options, which will be at the bottom of the screen.

    There you have it

    Excuse me but I need to say that at first when I screenshot this page, it was working well but when I tried to screenshot something else, it refused to let me. I came back to this page to see if it was a problem with my phone but it wasn't. I need to know what I'm doing wrong so I can correct and test it for myself

    1. Press and hold both the power button and volume down button for three seconds, or until you hear the camera screen click.
    2. To see the screen picture, touch Apps > Gallery > Screenshots.

    -Pull up whatever you want to screenshot on your phone.
    -Simultaneously hold down the power button and volume down (-) -button for two seconds.
    -You'll see a preview of what you just screenshot on the screen, then a new notification will appear in your status bar.
    -The new notification will say "Screenshot captured" and show the time of capture.

    taking screenshots is easy in Motorola press the lock button with the volume down button and then check into your file manager, you will find a screenshot section there ... where you will find your screenshot. This technique of taking screenshots works on most android phones.

    How do you screenshot on a Moto G 2022?

    Take a screenshot on the moto g stylus (2022)..
    When you're using the stylus, touch the stylus menu, then touch ..
    Touch & hold three fingers on the screen..
    Press & hold the Power button, then touch Screenshot..
    Press & hold Power and Volume Down simultaneously until the screen is captured..

    How do you screenshot on Moto without volume button?

    If for some reason that doesn't work, press and hold the power button for a few seconds and then tap Screenshot when it appears on your screen. You can quickly take a screenshot on the Galaxy S22 Ultra and the Pixel 6 by pressing the volume down and power buttons.
