We found an interesting topic but now we don't have time to read the article. We'd like to save it for later, but it's an internet page. So we decide to take a screenshot, but the screenshot doesn't have the whole article. So we have to scroll and do it again for each page. So we end up with 4, 5 photos in the gallery, perhaps with repeated pieces.
It will happen to everyone. But today we at resources4gaming Staff will explain how to take a long screenshot of an entire web page. So reading an article or a recipe offline will no longer be a problem.

What is a Screenshot?
The screenshot, screen snapshot or screen, is used to save what we are viewing on the screen in the form of images. It can also be done from a PC, but screens are most commonly captured from smartphones.
How to take a screenshot
The method to use varies depending on the operating system. On the one hand we have iOS for the iPhone, and on the other Android for most other phones. For example Huawei or Samsung.
Let's see the procedure to be able to take a screenshot with iPhone:
In models up to the iPhone 8, those with the central button, it is done by clicking the "Home" button and the side power button simultaneously.
In models from the iPhone X and later, however, as there is no longer any central button, the procedure is this. You have to press the "Volume +" button and the power button at the same time.
With the new iPhone update we have a gem. Now you can take a screenshot by simply double tapping the back of the phone. Here is the procedure to activate the function.
Go to “Settings” and then click on “Accessibility”. At this point click on “Touch”. Scrolling to the bottom we find the wording "Tocco Rear". Click and another tab will open. Click on “Double Tap” and choose the “Snapshot Screen” function.
Now let's see how to take a screenshot on Android.
For Android phones, you must hold down the side power key and the "Volume -" key at the same time.
Now that we know how to take a normal screenshot, let's see how to take a full page one.
How to take a long screenshot of an entire web page
It should be noted that the long screenshot can only be made of internet pages. Or document files. Unfortunately it is not yet possible to do this of application screenshots.
We proceed with the methods that we have seen previously according to our operating system.
Per iPhone
Once the screenshot has been taken, we will see the screenshot just made at the bottom left of the screen.
Click on it and the editing screen will open. At the top it will read “Screen” and “Full Page”.
Click on full page and we will see the whole article, the long screen. Now just click on "Finish" at the top left and you're done. In the gallery there will be a long screenshot of the whole article.
For Android
Once the screenshot has been taken, the preview of the screen will appear, then a button with the words "Scrolling screen" will appear at the bottom right. Time to load the screenshot and screenshot of the whole page is ready.
It must be said that depending on the Android version present on the mobile phone, some details could change. Like for example the scroll screen button may be in a single bar at the bottom and not the bottom right.
So here's how to take a long screenshot of an entire web page.
