We understand that you are smart. Therefore, there will be no teaching like select the screen you want to capture or turn on your phone. No nonsense. Just the required information how to make a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy M12 phone.
Use buttons
To take a screenshot is to use the buttons. Hold down the Volume Down and Power buttons and hold them down until the screenshot is captured. You can use this method to make a scroll screenshot.
If the main way to take a screenshot not work and you can't find image let's go further.
Palm swipe
Swipe the side of your palm across the screen from one side to the other palm from one side of the screen to the other (as if wiping it) to take a screenshot using the Palm Swipe. It doesn't matter whether you move your palm to the right or to the left.
Smart select
Samsung's Smart select option is really useful. It allows you to capture any part of the screen of the selected shape (oval or square). In addition, you can also use Smart select to create GIF animations..
Google Assistant
The slothful option is to use Google Assistant. Just say OK Google and then Take a screenshot. The phone will do all the work for you.
Use apps
You can use special applications for screenshots which are very much in Google Play: Screenshot Pro, Screenshot touch, Private Screenshots, Screen Master, Screenshot Easy and more... They all have instructions on how to use them to take a screenshot and save the picture.
Bixby
The Bixby voice assistant can also be used to take a screenshot. You can use Bixby in a similar way as Google Assistant.
Where are my screenshots? If you can't find the screenshots you took, don't despair. The folders where the gadget saves screenshots and ordinary photo may be different. Again, it all depends on custom shells. A pure Android throws pictures into the gallery (DCIM). Other shells can save screenshots to a separate folder for your convenience.
How do I share my screenshots? Depending on the Android version and the custom UI, sending screenshots may differ. In new versions of Android (9 or 10), the quick actions menu will appear after you take a screenshot instantly. There you need to select the appropriate icon for sharing. Or just open the gallery app on your gadget.
This is suitable for phones of all operators.
