You probably already know how to take a screenshot on a Samsung Tablet. And chances are, you can also do it on a Samsung Galaxy S9 or Note 8. But what about the Samsung Galaxy Note 9? Well, let me walk you through the different methods you can use to take a screenshot on the Note 9.
The easiest way, just like on most Androids, including the Galaxy S8 and other Galaxy smartphones, is to press the Power and Volume Down buttons simultaneously. Press them both for about 1.5 seconds, and you’ll hear a shutter sound. Once you hear that sound, release the buttons and you can find your screenshot in the Gallery app.
Before you can use this method, though, you need to activate the “Swipe to Capture” feature in the Galaxy Note 9 settings. To do that, follow these steps:
1. Open the App menu and go to the Settings app.
2. Look for the “Advanced Features” option and enable it.
3. Now, on any screen, you can swipe from the left side to the right side with the side of your hand to take a screenshot.
There’s also a feature called Smart Capture that lets you share and crop screenshots. To enable this feature, follow these steps:
1. Open the App menu and go to the Settings app.
2. Find the “Advanced Features” option and enable it.
3. Look for the “Smart Capture” option and toggle the slider to turn it on.
If you’re wondering where your screenshots are saved, by default, they are stored in the Gallery app under the “Screenshots” folder or in the phone’s internal storage under Pictures > Screenshots. You can use the screenshot feature to capture anything on your screen, like WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook.
Now, let’s talk about another method to take a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. You can use the device keys for this. Just press the Power button and the Home Key at the same time for about one to two seconds. You’ll see a quick flash and hear a camera shutter sound, confirming that the screenshot has been captured. The screenshot will be saved in the Gallery app. Remember to press the Power and Home keys simultaneously.
If this method doesn’t work on your device, don’t worry. There are more options. One of the fastest and most convenient ways to capture a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is by using the Palm-Swipe gesture. To enable this feature, follow these instructions:
1. Open the App menu and go to the Settings app.
2. Look for the “Motions” submenu and choose the “Hand Motions” option.
3. Tick the checkbox for “Palm swipe to capture.”
4. Exit the Settings app and go to the screen you want to capture.
5. Swipe horizontally from the left side to the right side or vice versa, from edge to edge, with your thumbs facing upwards. If you do it correctly, a swipe animation will be triggered, and your screenshot will be captured.
Now, let’s talk about how you can view your screenshots. To view a screenshot right after you capture it, follow these steps:
1. Slide down the Notification panel from the top of the screen.
2. Click on the screenshot image to view it.
3. From the Notification panel, you can edit, delete, or share the screenshot directly.
If you want to view previously captured screenshots, follow these steps:
1. Open the App menu from the Home screen.
2. Click on the Gallery app.
3. Select “Albums” and then the “Screenshots” folder.
4. Find the screenshot you want to view and click on it.
Now, let’s say you want to share a screenshot you’ve captured on your Galaxy Note 9. There are a couple of ways to do it. You can share it directly from the notification panel or from the Gallery app.
