We understand that you are smart. This is why there will be no teaching such as select the screen you want to save or turn on your device. No nonsense. Only the necessary information how to make a screenshot on the OnePlus 8 phone.
Use buttons
Perhaps the easiest way to take a screenshot is to use the buttons. Hold down the Volume Down and Power buttons and keep them pressed until the screenshot is captured. You can also use this method to make a scrolling screenshot.
If the main way to take a screenshot not work and you can't find picture we'll try other options.
Google Assistant
The laziest option is to use Google Assistant. Just say OK Google and then Take a screenshot. The gadget will do all the work for you.
Long screenshot
To take a long screenshot, just click on the appropriate icon. You will see this icon after you have taken a normal screenshot. This method can also be called to screenshot with scroll.
Use Capture icon
Another option is to use phone's built-in capabilities. Swipe down on the screen and open the notification bar. Locate the screenshot icon (shortcut) and click on it to make a picture. You've done everything you want to do. You got the picture.
Use apps
You can can download and install additional screenshot apps which are very much in Google Play: Private Screenshots, Screenshot Easy, Screenshot Pro, Screen Master, Screenshot touch and more... All these apps have instructions on how to use them to take a screenshot and save the picture.
Three-finger swipe
Swipe three fingers down the screen to get a screenshot. The location of swipe is not crucial. This method is applied in OxygenOS.
Where does my screenshot go on? If you can't find the screenshots you took, don't despair. The gadget can save screenshots to different places. 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 built-in 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 select the appropriate icon for sharing. Or just open the gallery app on your phone.
These methods work with gadgets of all operators.
