Time needed: 1 minute.

The steps to create a screenshot on your Pixel Smartphone are the same for almost all models.

  1. Open the screen

    Open the screen you want to capture.

  2. Press the power button and the space bar of your smartphone

    Now press and hold the power button and the space bar of your smartphone simultaneously for several seconds.

  3. Have a look at the preview

    A screenshot will be taken, and you can see it in the preview in the lower left corner.

  4. Find the screenshot in der gallery folder “Screenshots”

    This screenshot can now be found in the gallery in the folder “Screenshots” and you can edit or share it as you like.

This works for all models except the Pixel 4 and the Pixel 4 XL.
