How to take a screenshot in Samsung A21s, using the “volume down” & power button

This is actually the easiest way of taking screenshots not just on Samsung smartphones alone, but generally on all Android smartphones.

And to do this, simply follow the steps below.

First of all, make sure that you’re currently on the page or screen that you want to take a screenshot of.
Now, quickly press and release the “volume down“, and press and release the “Power button” to take a screenshot (you need to do this very quickly).
- Alternatively, you can also press and release the volume down & power button at once instead of pressing them one after the other.
And once you’ve gotten the combo right, the screenshot will be captured.

After taking the screenshot, you’ll get a roll of options at the bottom of your phone’s screen, and from there, you can quickly perform tasks like sharing the screenshot, cropping it, editing it, or even taking a “scroll shot” by pressing the downward pointing arrow.

And that’s for how to take screenshots using the volume down and power button combination. But what if you’re finding it difficult to press both buttons at the right time?

How to take a screenshot by using Samsung’s Assistant menu button

With this method, instead of trying to hit the volume down and power button at the same time, you’ll get a virtual assistive button at the edge of your screen, so whenever you want to take a screenshot, all you have to do is pull up the assistant menu by pressing the button, and afterward, select the screenshot button, just as shown from the screenshots below.

And here’s how to get it activated.

First of all, find your way down to your phone’s main settings page.
When in there, locate and tap on the “Accessibility” settings option.
And from accessibility, go to “Interaction and dexterity“.
Now locate the “Assistant menu” option with a toggle button in front of it.
And simply tap on this button to get it activated.
When activated, you will see a small menu button placed either on the left or right edge of your phone screen.
And when you tap on this button, it brings up a menu of options, so simply locate the one that says “Screenshot” from there, and tap on it to take a screenshot in your Samsung A21s phone.

How to take screenshot using the “Palm swipe to capture” gesture

And the last method of how to take screenshot in Samsung A21s is by using the built-in “Palm swipe to capture“.

So, with this feature activated, all you have to do is swipe the edge of your palm across your phone’s screen, and the screenshot will be captured.

And here’s how to get it activated.

First of all, make your way down to your phone’s main settings page.
Now, go to “Advanced features“.
And from there, go to “Motions and gestures”.
Finally, on the motions & gestures page, you should see the option labeled “Palm swipe to capture” with a toggle in front of it.
Simply tap on this toggle to get it activated, and you’re done.
Now, whenever you want to take a screenshot, simply swipe the edge of your palm across your phone’s screen to capture the shot.
Take note that the edge of your palm must be touching the screen while swiping.

And that wraps it up for today on how to take screenshot in Samsung A21s.
