How do I screenshot using my iPad
When I hit the top button and either volume button my screen shuts down!! I would like to know because I use it with my iPhone 16 and all phones prior!
iPad, iPadOS 18
By far the easiest method to trigger and save a screenshot is to set-up and use the corner-swipe gesture.
Settings > Multitasking & Gestures >
- Swipe Finger from Corner - set to ON
- Bottom Left Corner - select as required
- Bottom Right Corner - select as required
You can also trigger a screenshot using an Apple Pencil:
Settings > Apple Pencil > [Pencil Gestures]
- Bottom Left Corner - select as required
- Bottom Right Corner - select as required
The other ways to trigger a screenshot from an iPad are described here:

By definition, a screenshot will capture the entire screen. If you only wish to capture part of the screen, you’ll need to crop the captured image using the markup tools:
