Captured image not saved for my Galaxy Tab E

I captured something by long pressing the home button and the screen flashed showing that the capture worked but when I checked Gallery it doesn't show.(however it does show a few captured images that I captured a long time ago, so it did work some time ago, just not now)

Do you mean that you pressed Power and Home together for about a second? https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...support/knowledge-base-202338/&token=rwNRlwNf.

I moved this from the Tab A forum to the More Samsung Tablets forum (since we don't have a Tab E forum).

That link doesn't seem to work. Were you supposed to press both buttons for it to work? I thought just long pressing the home button did it.

Sorry, Verizon links often cause screwiness on this forum.:-\ Here's the text from that page:

To capture a screenshot, press and hold the Power and Home button at the same time (for approximately 2 seconds).

To view the screenshot you've taken, swipe up or down from the center of the display on a Home screen then navigate: Gallery

> Screenshots.

I also replaced the link with the full one (which gets converted to a link starting with "forums.androidcentral"), so see if that link works now.

Ok, I saw that it does work, but it's hard because it's hard to press the power button.
So is there an alternative way of screen capture? Like pressing a button floating on the screen?

See if your tablet has the palm swipe method available: www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00050693/

Hi, guys maybe I can be of some assistance, in accessibility settings you can enable assistant menu as it a floating menu with screen capture under interaction and dexterity
