I will openly admit that this post should be filed under the “nerd” category, but if you’re an iPhone user you’ll appreciate the info. If you aren’t an iPhone user, you should be. I mean, who wouldn’t want a phone that allows you to dance around waving your phone as it produces your favorite light savor sound from Star Wars? Not that I’ve ever done that (wink).
Every now and then I’ve found myself wanting to take a screenshot of what is on my iPhone screen, but couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to do it. I knew people were doing it somehow, but really hadn’t put a lot of energy into figuring out the conundrum… until last Friday.
I needed a screenshot of my credit union’s new mobile banking application so I did a quick Google search and the mystery was solved. All you have to do is push the home button on the front of the phone followed by a click of the on/off button on the top right corner of the phone and it will snap a photo. The jpg will go straight to your photos folder and you can instantly email it via your email client.
Again, I know this might be worthless information, but somewhere along the line it might help someone, just as the article I found helped me.
PS – for you iPhone fanatics, I understand that “home” and “on/off” might not be the official terms.
