1. Print without using the buttons
In short, the iPhone has an accessibility feature that can facilitate a number of commands on the mobile, including screenshots. In settings, for example, you can turn on the “Touch Back” option and set actions for double and triple switches on the back of the iPhone. In this way the function can be useful for those who have difficulty pressing buttons or for those who make a lot of prints.
To use the tool, go to your phone settings and tap the “Accessibility” tab. Then, select “Touch” and scroll down until you find the “Touch Back” tab. Then choose the double or triple tap options and indicate that the action is the number of taps, in this case “Screenshot”.
2. Highlight parts of images with the magnifying glass
In summary, another tool that is useful for highlighting some areas of the prints made on the mobile phone is the “Magnifying glass” function. With it, you can circle and enlarge a part of the image, improving the display of excerpts from the print. To use it, take a screenshot and tap the thumbnail that will appear in the lower left corner of the screen. Then, select the “+” icon in the lower right corner and tap “Magnifier”.
A circle will appear on the screen. Then, just reposition it in the most suitable place, by touching and dragging it. In addition, you can also control the size of the circle and the magnification level of the image, just move the blue and green points to the sides.
3. Copy instead of save
iOS 16 has brought, among many features, a function that simplifies the management of archiving screenshots on the iPhone. With the novelty, the user can copy and paste the prints made on the mobile phone without the images being saved in the gallery of their device.
In this sense, to use the function, after printing, it is necessary to tap on the thumbnail that will appear in the lower left corner of the screen. Then, simply hit “Ok” and select the “Copy and Delete” option. This way, as soon as you paste the printout into another window, it will be removed from the clipboard and will not appear saved in the phone memory.
4. Take a full screen screenshot in Safari
Also in Safari it is possible to take full screen screenshots, very useful when you want to take a screenshot larger than the limits imposed by the size of the screen itself. To do this, simply print and click on the thumbnail that will appear in the lower left corner of the screen. Once this is done, select the “Full Page” tab.
5. Create perfect circles and arrows
The iPhone has another interesting and very useful trick for those who usually make drawings on screenshots. With the tool – which is native – it is possible to draw perfect circles and arrows on top of the prints, which can give the image a more professional touch.
To use the feature, after taking a screenshot of the mobile, tap on the thumbnail that will appear in the lower left corner and draw the desired shape, pressing the screen for a few seconds after completing the sketch. The drawn format will then be replaced by a perfect shape soon after and will make your notes more fluid and without unnecessary scribbling.
