iPhone: How to take a screenshot

1. If you want to take a screenshot with the iPhone, press and hold the on-off button and the home button at the same time. The display brightens briefly, the screenshot is taken.
2. If your iPhone does not have a home button, you can instead combine the on / off button on the right with the volume up button on the left side of the device. The rest of the procedure remains the same.
3. The current screen is photographed and saved in your photo folder. You can also easily transfer your screenshots to the PC (see video below).
4. In general, you can take a screenshot of any iPhone screen. However, please note that the screenshot function is usually blocked for banking apps, for security reasons.

Once you've transferred a screenshot to your PC, you can edit it using free photo editing tools.
