Many smartphone and tablet users often wonder about how to take a screenshot on Huawei. In fact, there is nothing complicated here. There are many ways that you can quickly (literally in a few seconds) take pictures from the screen of your favorite phone or tablet. In today's article, we will just talk about the most popular and effective ones.
Way for everyone
How to take a screenshot on Huawei? Suitable for absolutely any device and any version of the Android firmware. You need to simultaneously press the power button and the volume down button. It may take some time to work out, because the most important thing here is accuracy and synchronism. It is enough to take a couple of shots from the screen in such a way as to consolidate the skill.
Screenshot from the “menu”
How else to take a screenshot on Huawei? The third way is to use the special menu that opens through the power / lock button. This method is perfect not only for phones, but also for tablets. Everything is done as follows: first you need to hold down the power button and hold it until a special menu appears on the screen through which you can turn off the phone. As a rule, at the very bottom of this menu there is a “Screenshot” item, and here it is necessary to click on it.
Screenshot from the "curtain"
Another fairly simple and no less popular way to take a screenshot on Huawei is to use the “curtain”, or the notification panel. What do we have to do:
- Unlock device.
- With your finger, drag the notification bar down to display all the icons that are there.
- Find among the icons the one that is signed as a “Screenshot”, click on it.
- Done! The screenshot taken will be saved in the device’s gallery.
Smart gestures
The next fairly popular way to take a screenshot on a Huawei phone is to use smart gestures. Almost all smartphones and tablets of recent years have support for smart gestures and taps that are responsible for certain functions. Few people know, but in order to take a screenshot, there are also several special gestures. Important: all smart gestures for screen shots need to be done not with your finger, but with your knuckle.
So, the first gesture is a double tap knuckle on the screen. Yes, that’s how simple it is. You just need to “tap” the knuckle on the display twice, and the screenshot will be ready.
The second gesture is drawing with a knuckle. This method is only suitable if you suddenly need to take a picture of only a specific part of the image on the screen. How it works: with the help of a knuckle, an area is “outlined”, after which a small menu for editing the future image appears. With its help, you can add some information to a screenshot or save it immediately to the gallery.
The last smart gesture is to draw the letter S. This method also has a specific purpose - creating long screenshots. Using a knuckle you need to “draw” an imaginary letter S on the screen. A long screenshot will be instantly taken and placed in the smartphone gallery.
Magic button
Another very useful way that makes it possible to take a screenshot on Huawei phones is the “magic button”. This method is suitable only for devices that have an Easy Key button on the left side. Everything is done like this:
- You need to go into the device’s settings, then go to the “Management” item and select “Smart Button” there.
- In the settings menu that appears, you need to choose which action will be responsible for the screenshot. This can be a simple press, double tap or hold.
- When the choice is made, you can start creating screenshots using the Easy Key button.
3rd party applications
And the last way to take a screenshot on a Huawei tablet or smartphone is to use a third-party application. There are a lot of different programs in the Market that allow you to take screenshots. The most popular of them are EZ Screenshot and Screenshot Leicht. Both applications are completely free and incredibly easy to use.
