Sometimes an image is worth a 1000 words, and this is especially true when making a report on an app throwing an error, or seeking help on how to do something within the app.

An image (or in this case a screenshot!📲) of the issue goes a long way when trying to understand diagnose the issue you're having and how to best fix it! 🛠

That said, taking a screenshot on an iPhone or iPad couldn’t be any simpler. 

However, please note the method varies slightly depending on the brand and model of the phone...

If your iPhone is an iPhone 8 or earlier model:

  1. Locate the power button on the right hand side of the phone.

  2. Locate the Home button, which is the circular button at the bottom of the screen.

  3. Now press and hold both buttons at the same time to take the screenshot.

If your phone doesn’t have a Home button, such as on the iPhone X, the process is as follows:

  1. Locate the Side button on the right side of the phone.

  2. Locate the Volume Up button on the left hand side of the phone.

  3. Now press and hold both buttons at the same time to take the screenshot.

Finally here's a short video to show you the process in action 😎:
