Screenshots on the S4

[richv77]

I have found that swiping the screen on the S4 to take a screenshot seems much harder than on the S3. I have to swipe a few times before it's successful.

Anyone else notice this? Thanks for your comments.

Yes I didn't have a s3 but I will say my. S4 is very challenging to take a Screen shot, is the swipe Method the only way to take one, or is there buttons that work also

Home and power button for a few seconds.

Yeah I don't like the swipe. Didn't like it much on the S3 either. I didn't like it because if I am trying to take a screenshot of something that could with my gesture then it would and therefore the screenshot would only catch whatever didn't move off the screen. Found it particularly annoying when trying to take screenshots of something in the browser. I disabled because it's not worth it. Sure it looks cool but home + power is more reliable.

Thank you so much! I used to screenshot the weather for my friends in colder climates and haven't been able to do it on my S4. I've been wondering if there was an easier way, this is so awesome!
