Better Screenshot

narinderdhillon — Thu, 21 Jan 2021 10:17:07 GMT

Current screenshot implementation while looks great as a gesture gimmick I am certain it doesn't work for all. I for much prefered older implementation of holding power nd volume button. It no longer works for me and gesture way of taking screenshot doesn't work for me also because I have a disability with my finger. So when I swap across the screen as I am supposed to it gets registered as a touch event rather than a swipe because of my crooked finger which is common disability among many.

See my finger is crooked

So when I try to swipe it ends up as if it is supposed to touch event

Kindly look into it, I am sure this is something that may have not come up in internal discussion in design refinements.

I don't see why you have Contact Us option available here, it seems unnecessary and unwanted. Providing a direct link to task manager there might be better use and implementation than a Contact Page which I am sure no one uses every minute for it to be present there in first place.

Sir, That button method is a lil bit changed now, but that still works.
Now you need not to hold those buttons but you have to press them (Power key and Vol -) once but simultaneously.

Or there is another way,
Goto Settings 》 Accessibility 》 Interaction and Dexterity 》 Enable assistant menu.

And in that assistant menu you can add a shortcut for screenshot.

If that helped or solved your query "Accept as solution" will be appreciated.

That may work but still a bug indeed to look into on screenshot gesture part. Not all people have all five normal fingers 😂
