How to take a screenshot on the Samsung Z1 and Samsung Z3

Tips & Tricks

The Samsung Z1 and Z3 are two smartphones from the company to be powered by Tizen, its own mobile operating system. All of Samsung's Android smartphone can take screenshots, and considering Tizen takes many cues from the company's Android interface, you can take screenshots on the Z1 and Z3, too. Well, it's a basic feature that every mobile OS should support, but how exactly do you take a screenshot on Samsung's Tizen-powered handsets?

The procedure is actually the same as Galaxy handsets, and here's a step-by-step guide.

  1. First, you need to have whatever it is you want a screenshot of to be on the display. This can be an app, game, or any other screen that you want to capture.
  2. Press and hold the power button and the home button at the same time until you hear a camera shutter sound and see an animation, which is the indication the screenshot has been captured.

Once taken, you can access your recent screenshot by dragging down the status bar and clicking on the screenshot notification. To access all your screenshots, simply go into the Gallery app where you will see the screenshots along with your regular photos and videos. If you want to access the dedicated Screenshots folder, simply press the menu button in the gallery, click View as then select Albums to sort your images by album instead of by the time they were taken.
