Taking screenshots is an action that we perform almost daily and even more than once. It is the most comfortable way to save interesting data or to immortalize a web, piece of conversation or achievement in a game. Be it for the reason that everyone uses this function, on LG mobiles it can also be done through various methods that we will see below.
The alternatives to be able to take screenshots using different methods are, in many cases, salvation when something goes wrong. We have a clear example in the physical buttons, since if, for example, the volume buttons do not work correctly, we will rarely be able to make screenshots successfully the first time using this system. We have seen that the different manufacturers manage them so that the user can carry out the also known as “Screenshots”, through various systems. Let’s take a look at how to perform them on LG mobiles.
Classic method
The button combination is the most used and the most classic method. This does not mean that it is the most effective, but it is usually common to all models and almost all manufacturers. In the case of LG mobiles, the capture will be made instantly when we press the buttons to turn down the volume and turn on simultaneously.
Through Air Motion
This method works with those LG mobiles that have the Air Motion function such as the LG G8 or the V50. The terminal will recognize various types of gestures with the front camera and execute actions, such as the screen capture. To do this, we will have to move our hand in front of the screen so that the mobile recognizes it. Then an icon will appear on the screen and we will only have to make a “pinch” gesture in the air by bringing two fingers together and separating them. This will take the screenshot without touching it.
Quick capture
This method is very simple and does not require touching the physical buttons of the device either. In order to carry it out we will have to slide down the notification bar and click on the “Capture +” icon. This method will allow us to choose between a normal screenshot or an extended screenshot , which is done by sliding the screen down until we have selected the piece we want. Then we can draw, write on it, cut it out and even delete parts. When we finish we will only have to save it and we will find it in the gallery.
With Google Assistant
In this case, Apple‘s virtual butler can also help us in this task. To do this, we must touch the physical button of the Google Assistant (if we have it) or say “Ok Google” and simply say “Take screenshot” so that it is done at the moment.
