With a screenshot, you can capture what you\u2019re seeing, and then save it for later or share it with others without having to take a photo of your device with a camera.<\/p>\n<p>On an iPad, when you capture a screenshot, it\u2019s saved as an image in your Photos library in the \u201cScreenshots\u201d album (unless you choose to save it to Files after editing, which you\u2019ll see more about below). Once the screenshot is in Photos, you can share it, just like any other image or photo stored on your device.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Take_a_Screenshot_Using_Buttons\"><\/span>How to Take a Screenshot Using Buttons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-724586\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/ipad_screenshot_buttons.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"423\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Most people capture a screenshot on their iPad using a combination of hardware buttons. The buttons that you press are different based on the type of iPad that you have. Here are the combinations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>iPads without a Home button:<\/strong> Briefly press and hold the Top button and the Volume Up button at the same time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>iPads with a Home button:<\/strong> Briefly press and hold the Top button and the Home button at the same time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Take_a_Screenshot_without_Buttons\"><\/span>How to Take a Screenshot without Buttons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can also capture screenshots on your iPad without using the hardware buttons using a feature called AssistiveTouch. This comes in handy if you can\u2019t physically perform the button combination, or if one of the buttons is broken or damaged.<\/p>\n<p>To enable AssistiveTouch, open Settings and navigate to Accessibility &gt; Touch &gt; AssistiveTouch. Flip the switch beside \u201cAssistiveTouch\u201d to the on position.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-722719\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iphone_assistivetouch_on.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Turn the &quot;AssistiveTouch&quot; switch on.\" width=\"650\" height=\"322\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Once AssistiveTouch is enabled, you\u2019ll see a button that looks like a circle inside a rounded rectangle near the edge of your screen. This is the AssistiveTouch button. You can drag it with your finger to reposition it, but it always stays on your screen as long as AssistiveTouch is enabled.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-722731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iphone_assistive_touch_button_example.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"The AssistiveTouch button as seen on an iPhone.\" width=\"650\" height=\"329\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Now that AssistiveTouch is turned on, there are two primary ways that you can trigger a screenshot with it. The first is by using \u201cCustom Actions\u201d that h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>en when you tap the AssistiveTouch button.<\/p>\n<p>On the Settings &gt; Touch &gt; AssistiveTouch screen, locate the \u201cCustom Actions\u201d section. Tap \u201cSingle-Tap,\u201d \u201cDouble-Tap,\u201d or \u201cLong Press\u201d depending on your preference, and then select \u201cScreenshot\u201d from the list of actions that appear.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-724544\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/select_screenshot_in_list.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"353\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Then tap \u201cBack.\u201d To take a screenshot, just perform a single tap, a double tap, or a long press on the AssistiveTouch button (depending on which one you chose).<\/p>\n<p>The second method for taking screenshots without buttons is by using the AssistiveTouch menu. By default, the \u201cSingle-Tap\u201d custom action in Settings &gt; Touch &gt; AssistiveTouch is assigned to \u201cOpen Menu.\u201d If that\u2019s still the case, you can tap the AssistiveTouch button at any time to see a pop-up menu.<\/p>\n<p>When you see the pop-up menu, select Device &gt; More, and then tap \u201cScreenshot\u201d to take a screenshot.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-724432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/assistive_touch_tap_screenshot.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"500\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>After that, you\u2019ll capture a screenshot exactly as if you\u2019d pressed the screenshot button combination on your iPad.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Happens_Next\"><\/span>What Happens Next?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you capture a screenshot on your iPad, a thumbnail image of the screenshot will appear in the lower-left corner of the screen. If you do nothing, the thumbnail will disappear automatically and the screenshot will be saved in your \u201cScreenshots\u201d album in the Photos app.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-724609\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/ipad_thumbnail.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"500\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If you tap the thumbnail, you\u2019ll enter an edit mode where you can add notes to your screenshot, crop it, and more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-724608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/ipad_edit_screen.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"500\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re done editing, tap \u201cDone,\u201d and your iPad will ask whether you want to save the screenshot to Photos or Files, or if you\u2019d prefer to delete it. Then repeat as often as you\u2019d like. The only limit to the number of screenshots that you can take is the size of your iPad\u2019s storage.
