Again, it all depends on custom shells. A pure Android throws pictures into the gallery (DCIM). Other shells can save screenshots to a different folder for your usability.
How can 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 smart menu will appear after you take a screenshot immediately. There you need to choose the appropriate icon for sharing. Or just open the gallery app on your gadget.
